Shri Somnath jyotirling Mandir
Veeraval #Gujarat

The Baan Stambh (Arrow Pillar) is located within the premises of the mandir. It is believed to be constructed in somewhere the sixth century. It tells us that there is no piece of land from here to south pole.
From this point at the Somnath Mandir to the #SouthPole in Antarctica there is no land mass, if one travels through the sea.

Did the mandir construct keeping this in mind??

3. The access to the Sabha is through the sides of the stage (not from the front as in most mandirs).
The Sanctum sanctorum is held by 28 pillars – representing the 28 agamas or set of methodologies for the worship of Bhagwan Shiva.

Built in 1908, it is its vintage charm of steam engine locomotive, tiny bogies, old-style telephones at stations; that makes you time travel the past!

While some of its stations like Lovedale & Ketti are submerged in greens, giving travellers a glimpse of tea gardens & surrounding them with the voice of chirping birds, some others like Coonoor bring you back to city vibes. It is a must visit for heritage seekers!
