Gomukh Temple

Gomukh Temple inside the Lonar crater is an ancient shrine with a natural freshwater spring emerging from a cow-head (Gomukh) carved in stone — one of several temples that dot the crater floor near the lake shore. The spring's water is strikingly different in composition from the hyper-saline lake nearby. A fascinating natural and spiritual curiosity, the temple adds mythological significance to the extraordinary geological phenomenon of the Lonar crater in Maharashtra.
