Somnath & Nageshwar Jyotirlinga Tour: Complete Gujarat Pilgrimage Route

The Eternal Shrines of Saurashtra: Somnath & Nageshwar

The western coast of Gujarat is home to two of the most revered Shaiva shrines: Somnath, the first among all twelve Jyotirlingas, and Nageshwar, the protector against all poisons and planetary afflictions.

Somnath: The Shrine Eternal

Overlooking the roaring Arabian Sea, Somnath Temple is a masterpiece of Chalukyan architecture. Rebuilt multiple times through history, it stands as a testament to the resilience of Sanatan Dharma. The evening Sound and Light Show (Jai Somnath) and the magnificent ocean sunset behind the temple tower are spellbinding.

Nageshwar & The Dwarka Link

Located just 17 km from the holy city of Dwarka, Nageshwar enshrines a powerful subterranean Jyotirlinga alongside a giant 80-foot seated statue of Lord Shiva. Combining Nageshwar with darshan at the Dwarkadhish Temple and a boat ride to Bet Dwarka makes for an extraordinary spiritual journey.
