Gujarat has India’s longest coastline, the white salt desert of Kutch and old stone towns where temple bells ring before sunrise. For Shiva devotees, it holds some of the most famous Shiva temples in Gujarat, including two of the 12 Jyotirlingas<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick Answer:<\/strong> Gujarat has eight notable Shiva temples covered in this guide: Somnath Jyotirlinga, Nageshwar Jyotirlinga, Bhadkeshwar Mahadev, Koteshwar Mahadev, Bhavnath Mahadev, Gopnath Mahadev, Hatkeshwar Mahadev and Trinetreshwar Mahadev. Somnath and Nageshwar are the state’s two Jyotirlinga shrines. Their locations span Saurashtra, Kutch and North Gujarat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somnath and Nageshwar lead the list. Bhadkeshwar is on a rock in the Dwarka sea, Gopnath on a cliff near Bhavnagar and Koteshwar at the Kutch border. Bhavnath, Hatkeshwar and Trinetreshwar complete the eight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The catch is distance. Koteshwar is 154 km beyond Bhuj with two buses a day. The sea covers Bhadkeshwar every June and July, and Mahashivratri crowds at Bhavnath can hold you up for hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s why you need to know a few things before you start planning. Darshan timings, tide windows, festival dates and road distances decide how many shrines you cover in a day. Our Chiku Cab drivers take these Saurashtra and Kutch routes regularly and plan each drive by aarti time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
