It is one of the most important Hindu pilgrimage sites in Goa. The temple is believed to have been built in the 13th century by the Kadamba dynasty. It is a two-tiered temple with a pyramidal roof. The main deity of the temple is a black stone idol of Mangesh, which is about 3 feet tall. The temple also has shrines dedicated to other Hindu gods and goddesses, such as Ganesha, Shiva, and Parvati.<\/p>\n<p>The temple is open to the public all year round. However, the most important festival at the temple is the Mangesh Utsav, which is held in the month of May. During this festival, the idol of Mangesh is taken out in a procession through the streets of Ponda.
