North
of the Shastri River lies the idyllic village of Velneshwar. The quiet,
coconut-fringed beach offers the visitor the ideal opportunity for
swimming or just relaxing . There is an old Shiva temple in the environs
which is often frequented by pilgrims. Velneshwar is the focus of
attention once a year in March, when the Maha Shivratri Fair is held in
honour of the god Shankar or Shiva. |
