Located on the Camp Road in Belgaum in Karnataka, Military Mahadev Temple is one of the prime attractions in the city that has been built and maintained by the Indian Army. Founded in 1955 by Lieutenant General S.M. Shrinagesh, General Officer, and Commander-in-Chief Southern Command, the temple is situated in the heart of a lush green park. In addition to that, there is also a play area for the kids. The foundation stone of Military Mahadev Temple was laid on January 18, 1954. The temple was opened to public on January 24, 1955 by Lieutenant General S.M. Shrinagesh, General Officer and Commander-in-Chief Southern Command. Military Mahadev Temple has undergone several renovations and modifications through the years and the dome has been completely changed. There is a religious ritual practised every Monday called Samuhik Panchamrit, also called as the collective offering of the Panchamrit. This Panchamrit is made of four important elements - honey, yogurt, ghee, and sugar. The most important festival celebrated here is Mahashivratri. It has undergone renovations with a new dome built in the original style and carvings similar to those in other South Indian temples. The temple remarkably clean and well-maintained. It is so called because of its long-standing use for worship by army personnel and of course, it was later thrown open to the public.

Personally, I have been visiting this place since I was a toddler, it could be a good 25+ years. This premises is famous among children, and host a huge play-area with slides, see-saw, swings to name a few. It also holds an open miniature collection of forts comprising of Sinhgadh, Rajhamsgadh and many more. Along with this it also holds a small zoo which shelters deers, rabbits, ducks and variety of other birds. This place holds the Mahadev (Shiva) temple and is managed & maintained by Military personnel's, hence the name "Military Mahadev". This place attracts many Shiva devouts to celebrate and organise MahaShivaratri. More over several schools nearby bring along their toddler students for recreational activities and picnics. It has an ample parking space for the visitors & devouts.

Military Shri Mahadev Shiva is a nice place to hang out in Belgaum. However, it has seen better days and the animals have reduced quite a bit from the early 2010s. The spotted deer are the highlights of the venue and they are absolutely majestic when they start running around their enclosure. There is also a big playground park at the entrance of the venue. It has a bouncy house and other park amenities like slides and swings. There is also an adjacent park dedicated to all the forts that Chatrapati Shivaji had ruled over. If that is what you would like to see. All in all, it is an inexpensive place to take the family.
