Since it was n th visit to Goa was looking for off beat places and we visited an old Portuguese house built in 13th century, the lady who manages the place gave us a nice tour,We enjoyed the tour and we all ended up singing in the place, as though deja vu we were in the ball room
As tweeple suggested we went to Tambdi surla temple! Best decision, monsoon added the beauty further! Temple is located among the hills, with streams surrounding it! With few water falls around!
#thread #templesofgoa Stunning laterite stone temple of Shri Saptakoteshwar in #khandepar village in Goa. Located on the banks of the River Khandepar, the temple is of Shri Saptkoteshwar, a form of Lord Shiva. Shri Saptakoteshwar was the patron deity of the Kadambas who ruled Goa
According to Goan archeologist, Shri Mitragotri, this temple was probably built first by the Kadamabas but renovated extensively by the Vijayanagara kings. The existing temple is a 3 storey structure built out of laterite stone, crowned with a dome with a lotus bud shaped kalasha
Two laterite stone Nandis and two stone elephants placed at the corners, facing each cardinal directions. Inside the temple, there is a small, but beautiful Nandi carved in black granite. The garbhgriha is in the form of a rock-cut cave carved out of a massive laterite block.
