Day 2
Dwarka - Full Day Excursion To Bet Dwarka , Nageshwar , Rukamni Temple , Gopi Talav
Highlights: Nageshwar Temple, Bet Dwarka, Rukmani Temple Bet Dwarka: Bet Is Situated At 30kms From Dwarka And Is Surrounded By Sea From All Sides. One Can Reach Bet From Dwarka Through Okha By Road. On Reaching Okha Port Jetty, One Can Reach Bet Through A Little Sea Journey In A Launch Or In A Small Boat. Nageshwar Temple Or Nagnath Temple Is Located On The Route Between Gomati Dwarka And The Bet Dwarka Island On The Coast Of Saurashtra In Gujarat. The Jyotirlinga Enshrined In The Temple Of Nagnath Is Known As Nageshwar Mahadev And Attracts Thousands Of Pilgrims All Round The Year. This Powerful Jyotirlinga Symbolizes Protection From All Poisons. It Is Said That Those Who Pray To The Nageshwar Linga Become Free Of Poison. The Rudra Samhita Sloka Refers To Nageshwar With The Phrase 'Daarukaavane Naagesham'. Rukmani Temple: This Temple Stands 2 Km Away From Dwarka City. The Local Explanation Given For This Distance Is An Old Legend. They Say, Once Lord Krishna And His Wife Rukmini Went To The Sage Durvasha To Invite Him For Dinner At Dwarka. He Agreed On The Condition That Krishna & Rukmini Would Have To Pull His Chariot Instead Of Any Animal. The Couple Happily Obliged. While Pulling The Chariot, Rukmini Became Thirsty So Lord Krishna Prodded His Toe Into The Earth To Draw A Spring Of The Holy Ganga Water. Rukmini Took A Sip Without Offering Durvasha. Annoyed By Her Impoliteness He Cursed Rukmini That She Would Be Separated From Her Beloved Husband. Hence Rukmini Temple Is Located 2 Kms Away From Dwarka's Jagat Mandir. Maybe 2500 Years Old, But Its Domed Mandapa And Stepped Sanctuary Cannot Be Older Than The 12th Century In Its Present Form. The Exterior Of The Rukmini Temple Is Richly Carved. It Has A Panel Of Sculpted Naratharas (Human Figures) And A Panel Of Sculpted Gajatharas (Elephants) At The Base. The Traditional Spire Of The Main Shrine Contrasts Strongly With The Hemispherical Dome Of The Pavilion. The Garbhagriha (Inner Sanctum) Has A Recessed Seat On Which The Present Image Of Rukmini, Wife Of Lord Krishna, Was Consecrated. The Usual Sculptures Of God And Goddesses, Along With Male And Female Figures, Are Seen On The Exterior Of The Shrine.
