The Walkeshwar Temple is located near Malabar hill.
The Walkeshwar Temple is located near Malabar hill. According to legend, Lord Rama came here on his way to Lanka to reclaim his consort Sita, who was kidnapped by the Demon King, Ravana.The temple also has a tank called the Banganga. A quiet place amidst all the bustle.The Walkeshwar temple was built in 1127 AD by the Silhara dynasty minister Lakshman Prabhu. Destroyed by the Portuguese when they ruled over Bombay, the temple was rebuilt in 1715, sponsored by a rich businessman, Rama Kamath. The Banganga tank has mythological significance as well. When a tired and thirsty Lord Rama in pursuit of Ravana stopped over at Walkeshwar for a sip, his brother Laxman shot an arrow (baan) into the ground, and water from the Ganges, which is thousands of miles away, sprang forth, giving birth to Baan-Ganga. The Shiva Linga here is believed to have been founded by Lord Rama himself.
