Shri Chandreshwar Temple Goa


India - Goa - Bodhgaya - Mysore - Pondicherry - Puri - Shimla - Srinagar - Trivandrum - Agra - Bangalore - Chandigarh - Varanasi - Hyderabad - Jaipur - Kerala - Kolkata - Pune - Udaipur - Darjeeling - Ahmedabad
Goans are predominantly Hindus. Goan temples today are more modern as compared to most of India's ancient temples, mostly because these are second homes to most deities that were re-established  outside of Portuguese controlled areas during the early days of Portuguese invasion and the dreaded Inquisition. Shri Chandreshwar Temple is one of the oldest temples of Goa.

Beauty of Shri Chandreshwar Temple, Goa

Shri Chandreshwar temple is situated on the top of the hill Chandranath. This temple dates to the pre-Christian era. That was when the region was ruled by the Bhoja Kings. The capital of the Bhoj kings was Chandrapur. Chandrapur is today’s Chandor. The main deity here is Shiva lingam. It is believed to be lit up by moonlight on the full moon night and is said to become mystically bathed in water.
