One of the most famous and ancient holy shrines in Gujarat, the Shamlaji Vishnu Mandir at Shamlaji, in the Aravalli district is a temple dedicated to Gadhadhar Shamlaji avatar of Lord Vishnu. Built in the 15th century with inspirations from the 11th century Chaulukya architecture style, the Shamlaji Temple of Gujarat is located on the banks of Meshvo river in Aravalli. Steeped in history and spirituality, the Shamlaji Temple hosts several traces of early temple building from ancient India – with expansions and renovations adding to the temple campus over the centuries.
