This is the temple along with ancient civilizations for King and vav for Queen. Must visit place with Family. There is many statues of lords and to your knowledge there is small board to explain the use of those areas. Thank you

Old temple constructed in 10th century. Belongings of temple spread across the regions. If you like archeological Things then this place is must. You can also get tent here for stay. You may get the tent for 1500 for 8 peoples.

Originally a Shiva temple buily around 1000 years back. Somehow locals covered the idop of Shiva with chunari/saree and started calling it Kaleshwari. Look at the idol and one understands that its Shiva , not a Devi(Goddess). The old idols in the temple area carved out of stone are really beautiful. The Mother in law and daughter in law steps wells are fascinating. The small lake in the premises proves that the ancients had good ideas of building such phenominal structures. Worth visiting

Must visit place with family.
Bring your eatables with you along with water.
Can spent good time with family.
Also very Easy to come here by road.

Very nice and beautiful place for family picnic. Avoid going in summers because it will be very hot.

The Kaleshwari Group of Monuments also known as Kaleshwari-Ni Nal , is located near Lavana village, Khanpur Taluka of Mahisagar district, Gujarat, India. It is near the district headquarters Lunavada and near a stream in Hidimba Van, the forest of Hidimba. The group includes intricately-carved temple ruins, two stepwells, a reservoir, structures with panels of erotic sculptures and idols scattered all over the site. The ruins are located at the foothills and on the hillock. They were built between the 10th and 16th century; some monuments were reconstructed after the 18th century. These are State Protected Monuments.

The old temple exudes a timeless charm, carrying the weight of centuries in its sacred walls. Stepping into its hallowed grounds felt like a spiritual voyage, connecting me with generations past. The intricate architecture and weathered sculptures are a testament to the temple's rich history. A serene sanctuary for reflection and reverence.

The place have various ancient architectures and ruins of 10th to 14th century. Various small temples and stepwells are covered under this area. It's good place for spend a beautiful evening in between the nature and religion.

Beautiful heritage and pleasant refreshing environment.

Visitors please dont throw, cigarrate packets, plastic bottles here and there.

We reached kaleshwari at the time of sunset. But if you want to explore this place properly, you should spend atleast 2-3 hours here. There are many archiological buildings like stepwells, arjun and bhim's chori, temples and kund. 3-4 stepwells are there but you cant see each one of them as each one have 200 steps! U will see the ruins of this place everywhere inside the campus.

Take a good camera with u as it has many historical places to cherish. U can carry ur food and enjoy a family picnic. Along with heritage monuments it offers amazing natural view.

awesome place of small tour. kaleshwari is a historical place of 50's. people must say about that the place has connectivity of the pandavas. also here's knowing a second name of this whole area it is a "hedambaavan". bheema got a marrid with the queen of hedamba. she was a monster of hte area.

Heritage site well preserved. Well maintained. Best time to visit during winter.
