Omkareshwar is a religious temple town in Khandwa district, Madhya Pradesh 80 km from Indore and 70 km from Khandwa.
Siddharth Barahdwari is an ancient temple standing tall on an Om shaped island hillock.
The temple is built on an 8 feet high porch providing a stunning view of the Omkareshwar dam and Narmada river.
To reach this stunning architectural ancient wonder, one needs to take the Omkar Parikrama, a 7-kilometre hike between village homes and shops on the island hillock.
A lot of harmless Langoors and dogs will keep you company with sweet locals selling lemon water.
This is the last temple on the hike where one can sit in the peaceful aura for a while and feel the breeze.
The sculptures of elephants, gods and goddesses, flowers on the pillars and writings on the temple walls and pillars provide an incredible experience to history enthusiasts and travellers.
