Geography & terrain

Nageshwar lies in the Devbhoomi Dwarka district of Gujarat, 10 km from Dwarka and 230 km from Rajkot — the jyotirlinga town of the region, its Shiva temple, the 25-metre statue and the pilgrimage circuit set on the coast's edge.

History & culture

The town's story runs with the jyotirlinga tradition — one of the 12 jyotirlingas of the Shiva and the Nagnath temple of the ancient circuit, with the town's modern role as the pilgrimage stop of the Dwarka circuit and the home of the 25-metre Shiva statue and the Gopi Talav; the town's history of the Darukavana legends and the 1955 renovations, gives Nageshwar its jyotirlinga character.
