Baroda temples - 3

PAVAGADH KALI TEMPLE

We (myself & Narayanan) went to Pavagadh temple on 15th Feb 2010.
We have taken bus to Pavagadh bus stand near halol. Approximately 50km from baroda.

From there we have taken one jeep to ambaje temple. Jeep traverse for 6 km in the forest area and hill top. the ride is very nice. The front seat is filled with 6 persons. The jeep is filled with 20 persons and five person standing outside the jeep in the steps. In the pin curves we are worried about the standing persons outside the jeep.but they are local peoples not worried and enjoying the trip.

Then we have taken the cable car to reach the temple. Cable car moves to the height 500 meters. It is very nice and thrilling experience it moves to the top steadily. When cable car crosses the post we think it will hit the post but it moves without hitting the post. our hands are clutching the metal bar out of fear. Form there we have to walk and claim 50 steps to reach the mataji kali temple

Finally we entered into temple in the hilltop. small temple. A small queue. God face only placed in the sannidhi. It is covered with full of red kumkum.we came out a small steps goes to temple top there is another kali with 12 hands with filled with weapons.

Then we came down sppedly Against The Clock because 5pm the cable car closed for the day. We have to walk down for 6-7km that we don’t want to do. But people come here mostly by walking enjoying the walk in the mountains.

We catch the cable car, Jeep & bus and returned safely to our hotel.
