The temple lies at the meeting of the Kapila, Hiran, and Sarasvati rivers, and the waves of the Arabian Sea touch the shore on which it is constructed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Hindu mythological fact, the temple was built by Soma, the god of the moon, originally with gold, which was later rebuilt by Ravana in silver, by Krishna in wood, and by Bhimdev in stone. Moon God (Chandra) made the offering of worship to Lord Shiva here in order to get rid of the curse laid by Daksha Prajapati. Lord Shiva accepted his prayers and returned the moon&#8217;s radiance but also blessed the place as a Jyotirlinga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_of_Somnath_Temple\"><\/span>History of Somnath Temple<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple.jpg\" alt=\"Somnath Jyotirlinga Temple\" class=\"wp-image-7036\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple-107x60.jpg 107w, https:\/\/www.sharpholidays.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Somnath-Jyotirlinga-Temple-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The scared Somnath temple has faced numerous invasions and destruction over the years but was rebuilt each time.
