Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, is one of the 12 sacred Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva and holds immense religious significance. This ancient Ujjain Jyotirlinga is the only shrine where Lord Shiva is worshipped in his fierce form – Mahakaal, known as the god of time and death. Located near the holy Shipra River, this iconic Ujjain temple is especially famous for its early morning Bhasma Aarti, where Lord Shiva is bathed in sacred ash.
