PANCHALINGESWAR
Panchalingeswar, named after the five 'LINGAS' of Shiva that are enshrined in the temple is located on top of a hillock near the Nilagiri hills. The lingams are said to have been enshrined by Sita, the consort of Lord Rama during the period of their exile while another story holds that it was King Banasura himself who installed the lingams at this place given the tranquility and captivating beauty of the place. A perennial stream, which is the main attraction of the area, regularly washes the lingams as it flows over them. In order to touch and worship the lingams one has to lie flat on the rock parallel
to the stream.
