As I rode ahead on the Kalyan Shilphata road, I came across this very old temple called the Khidkaleshwar Mahadev Mandir situated on the banks of the Khiḍkali Lake.
The temple was built around the same time as the Durgadi Fort in the 17th century. Inside the main temple, in addition to the "swayambhu" - or self manifested Shiva Linga, there are other ancient idols of Ganesha and Hanuman.
The legend about this temple is that the Pandavas visited this place during their exhile in the forests, when Yudhishthira wanted to perform Shiva puja. So the Pandavas built this temple for his puja.
