Temples in Goa - Sri
Nagesh Maharudra Samsthan is one of the few temples, which
was not affected by Portuguese ill treatment and remains at
its original place. The temple was constructed in 1780 AD.
The affiliated deities of the temple are Sri Laxmi Narayan,
Sri Ganapati, Ravalnath and Betal. Other temples associated
with the Samsthan are Goddess Karado and Purvachari. The annual
jatra of the temple is held in the month of Chaitra during
Ramanavami. Shivaratri is also celebrated with Rathotsava
on Magha Amavasya (next day). The temple has Agrashalas with
well-equipped rooms and halls for wedding purposes. The Talai
or the water tank is famous in Goa for its crystal clear water
throughout the year. The temple has a gallery on both sides
that contains exquisite specimens of intricate woodcarvings
of the events of Ramayana on one side and wooden images of
Astadikpal and Gandharva on the other.
