{MOTIDOONGRI GANESH TEMPLE}Moti Doongri means pearl hill, bcoz the hill indeed resembles a pearl drop.Moti Dungri Temple is a very famous Hindu temple of Jaipur (Rajasthan) dedicated to Lord Ganesha. !!जय श्री गणेश !! #Jaipur #Rajasthan

this is the most auspicious & important religious Ganesh temple. The Ganesh temple was built by Seth Jai Ram Paliwal, sometime in the early 18th century. Lord Ganesha is well known for his one silver tooth and hence he is called ‘Ekdanta"

A legend goes, the King of Mewar was heading back to his palace after a long journey and was carting a massive Ganesh idol on a bullock cart. The king had decided that he would build a temple for the idol of Lord Ganesh wherever the bullock cart stopped.

Apparently the cart stopped at the foot of the Moti Doongri, which is where the temple is situated today.
श्री वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्य कोटी समप्रभा ।।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्व-कार्येशु सर्वदा ।।

Lord shiva is also placed there in the hills of Moti Dungri हर हर महादेव
