Chintaman Ganesha Mandir -Ujjain

Chintaman Ganesha temple is the biggest Ganesha Mandir  in Ujjain which dates back to 11 th century. It is just 6-7 Kilometres  from Ujjain Mahakal temple and near Kshipra river.This temple was constructed by Parmar Kings and later renovated by Ahilya Bai Holkar

It is believed that Sri Ram worshipped the Ganesha  here.

The idol here is believed to be a self manifestation and here we find  Icchaman Ganesha, Siddhivanayak and Chintaman Ganesha in the sanctum. In local parlance Ganesha is referred to as Chintaman as He is  the remover of worries and tensions and no wonder the temple gets crowded here everyday.

Photography is banned and I have just one picture to share from my visit, a distant view of the temple.
