Be A Saint And Visit This Old Renowned Temple

Siddhanth Shiv temple is situated between Takhat Sagar hills and Kalyana Lake. Its way is on Chopasani Road and it is about 10 Kms away from Jodhpur.
You can reach the temple only after crossing the hundreds of stairs made up by cutting rocks.
Once upon a time the place, exactly where the temple now stands, was completely a deserted area.



Siddhanth Shiv temple is believed to be built by GauriShanker (also called Nepali Baba, his real name was Veetragi Narain Swami) himself by cutting stones.
He was a handicapped saint who had only four fingers in each of his hand and foot.
WIIFY:
  1. This place is quite and has natural air in it.
  2. The architecture is appreciating.
  3. Since it is on hills you will get clear view of natural beauty of Jodhpur and Machiya Safari Park (which is nearby to it).
  4. You there are natural scenes you can click amazing photographs.
  5. This place has been featured in a documentary of DD National (National TV channel of India) around three years ago.
  6. You should repeat the mantra ‘Bham Bham Bhole here’.
