Experience the force of the divine

When you visit the Galteshwar Temple, you’re stepping into a world where history, nature, and spirituality come together beautifully. Situated near the confluence of the Mahi and Galati rivers, this ancient temple is an architectural treasure from the Solanki era. As you approach, the gentle sound of flowing water and the sight of the stunning temple create an aura of peace that takes you to another world to join with the divine.

Get lost in the intricate carvings

The temple is a masterpiece of art and architecture. Its unique eight-sided hall is adorned with detailed carvings that tell stories of gods, humans, and celestial beings. You’ll be mesmerised by the intricate depictions of gandharvas, rishis, horse and elephant riders, chariots, and even palanquins. The walls also display the journey of human life, from birth to death, in breathtaking detail. Every corner of the temple is a celebration of artistry and devotion.

A unique divine experience

One of the most captivating aspects of Galteshwar Temple is the constant sprinkling of water from the Galati spring onto the sacred Shiva Linga. This natural phenomenon adds such a mystical touch to the temple, making it a must-visit for those wanting spiritual solace. The rocky banks of the Mahi River provide the perfect backdrop for quiet moments of prayer and gratitude.
