About

Harishchandragad Hill Fort houses ancient rock-cut cave shrines including the famous Kedareshwar Cave — where a massive Shiva linga is surrounded by ice-cold waist-deep water under a giant rock canopy supported by a single remaining pillar (out of four cosmic pillars).

Nearby stands the 11th-century Nageshwar stone temple with carved wall panels, making it one of Maharashtra most dramatic cliffside cave sanctuaries.
