A shiva temple where Hindu pilgrims worship Lord Shiva

in #photography6 years ago

About one year ago I visited "Mangal Pandey Garden Barrackpore", a riverfront green park for picnicking & boat rides. This park is situated on the bank of Ganges & a cantonment is very close to it. This is the place where Mangal Pandey declared mutiny against British East India Company in 1857. So, it's a historical place also. Here, I first seen an old shiva temple. Hindu pilgrims worship Lord Shiva here. I was fascinated by the designs and sculptures of this temple.
