Shri Kale Ram Temple: The Original Deity

December 12, 2025 Friday

Shri Kale Ram Temple is unique because it houses the original idols of Ram, Sita, Lakshman, and Hanuman that were worshipped by King Vikramaditya nearly 2000 years ago. The idols are made of black stone (Kasauti stone).

This temple is often overlooked. Use the Trilok App map to navigate the narrow lanes of Theri Bazar to find it.
