farther inland rises the Gir range of bills or the Raivataka mountains of the Mahabharata
fame. The town proper is approached by a sufficiently good road from Veraval (upward of
two miles only), a railway station on the Rajkot-Veraval line. The celebrated temple,
which enshrines in itself one of the twelve pre-eminent jyotirlingas, stands towards the
south-western corner of the town on the seashore, from which it is separated by a
heavily-built retaining wall. |
