whirlpool and drowned .
SHRI GUPTESHWAR MAHADEV
Gupteswar means the one who is present everywhere in every form but still is
not divulged. Hence those who visit the Gupteshwar Mahadev, will never be touched by any of the five doshas even in their dreams, all their desires are fulfilled and if the devotee carry’s out the Jal Abhishek ceremony with water from
Maa-Narmada for a month, Lord Shiva is bound to provide a glimpse and fulfill all his worldly and heavenly desires no matter how colossal they may seem, for this
what lord shiva pledged to lord shri Rama during his stay.
MAHENDRA CAVE
This cave discovered in 1950 by young shepherds and it was named Mahendra Cave in honor of King Mahendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev. Locals refer to the cave as
the House of Bats (Chamero Odaar) due to this shy species of wildlife that call the cave home. The Mahendra Cave is a natural cave that is made from limestone. The entire cave is decorated in spectacular stalagmites and
