Shiva Temple
Papnash Shiva Temple in Bidar, Karnataka, is a revered Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. According to legend, it is believed that Lord Rama installed the Shiva Linga here on his way back to Ayodhya after defeating Ravana.
The original temple was lost over time, and a new structure was built at the site of the ancient ruins. The temple is located in a picturesque valley and features a large pond known as Papanash, meaning "destroyer of sins," where devotees take a holy dip, believing it cleanses them of their past transgressions.
The temple complex houses a main Shiva Linga along with three smaller ones, allowing devotees to perform rituals and prayers. The serene surroundings and spiritual significance make it an important pilgrimage site, especially during Maha Shivaratri, when large crowds gather to celebrate the festival.
