Its beautiful and peaceful place in Pune you can see the temple which was made around 18th century.Lord Shiva lovers have to visit this place once.
History and details of Cave:
Pataleshwar Cave Temple (likewise called Panchaleshvara or Bamburde) is a stone cut surrender sanctuary, cut out in the eighth century in the Rashtrakuta period.
The sanctuary, made of basalt shake, is devoted to the Hindu Lord Shiva. The sanctuary - a 3D square molded room around 3– 4 meters on each side - houses a linga - the image of Shiva and there are two littler cells on each side. Before the surrender is a roundabout Nandi mandapa, its umbrella formed shade bolstered by enormous square columns. This mandapa is one of the particular structures of Pataleshwar. The buckle(Cave) is situated at a lower level than the present level of the street and the surrender complex. There is a perfectly cut roundabout Nandi place of worship in the gigantic yard of the give in. The fundamental give in is rectangular on design and has a pillared patio. There are three sanctums in the give in sanctuary and the focal one houses the Shivalinga. There is a circumambulation way gave in the buckle where one can see the incomplete piece of the give in sanctuary. It creates the impression that in the wake of completing the front and the sanctum the surrender was left fragmented because of a few reasons, one of which could be the issues in the stone.
