The Nawab belonged to a dynasty r Travel + Leisure India & South Asia that had ruled over the princely state of Junagadh for around two centuries.

  • Places of Tourist Attraction on the Division
    Places of Tourist attraction on the Division : SOMNATH : Holy place of the Aadi Jyotirling Shree Somnath Mahadev and the sacred soil from where Bhagvan Shri Krishna took his last journey to his neejdham. Somnath Temple Somnath Temple at night Historic Back Ground : Shree Somnath is first among the twelve Aadi Jyotirlings of India. It has a strategic location on the shore of the Arabian ocean on the western corner of Indian subcontinent in Gujarat State. This pilgrimage is one of the oldest and finds its reference in the ancient texts like Skandpuran, Shreemad Bhagavat, Shivpuran etc. The hymn from Rig-Veda quoted below mention the Bhagvan Someshwar along with the great pilgrimage like Gangaji, Yamunaji and Eastward Saraswati. This signifies the ancient value of this Tirthdham.In the Shiva Purana and Nandi Upapurana, Shiva said, “I am always present everywhere but specially in 12 forms and places as the Jyotirlingas”. Somnath is one of these 12 holy places. This is the first among the twelve holy Shiva Jyotirlings. Somnath is in Prabhas Patan very near to Veraval.Ancient Indian traditions maintain a close relationship of Somnath with release of Chandra (Moon God) from the curse of his father-in-law Daksha Prajapati. Moon was married to Twenty-Seven daughters of Daksha. However, he favoured Rohini and neglected other queens. The aggrieved Daksha cursed Moon and the Moon lost power of light. With the advice of Prajapita Brahma, Moon arrived at the Prabhas Teerth and worshipped Bhagvan Shiva. Pleased with the great penance and devotion of Moon, Bhagvan Shiva blessed him and relieved him from the curse of darkness.
