Walkeshwar Temple, Hindu temple in Malabar Hill, Mumbai, India
The Walkeshwar Temple stands on a hilltop near the Arabian Sea, featuring stone walls, intricate carvings, and traditional architectural elements of Maharashtra.
Built during the 1400s, this temple bears witness to centuries of religious practices and underwent multiple reconstructions to maintain its original structure.
The temple grounds host numerous Hindu ceremonies throughout the year, with devotees performing rituals near the sacred Banganga Tank adjacent to the complex.
Visitors can reach the temple through local trains to Grant Road station or buses to Malabar Hill, with opening hours from sunrise to sunset.
During high tide, the Shiva lingam in the temple becomes naturally submerged in water, creating a natural phenomenon that draws religious significance.
