Sangameshwar Temple:
It is a very beautiful temple. It seems it is carved out of a single rock. There are two Nandis there; one is outside of the temple and another one is inside the temple. There is a lamp tower each on the right and left sides of the temple. A few big pillars support the roof of the temple. You can see beautiful designs carved on those pillars. You can enter the garbhagriha and take Darshan of Shivling. There is a beautiful design carved on the walls of the temple from the outside. The temple is not in great condition as it is a very old temple, but still, it is fabulous looking.
There is one more small Shiva temple on the left side of the temple.
