Shri Shanidev’s temple is located in old city’s Wadi area. It is ~260 years old temple. The temple has idol of Lord Shani which is artistically carved from a single black stone. It is said that this is only idol of Lord Shanidev where they are riding on the buffalo, in whole Gujarat.

Father-son alliance is seen in temple, where Lord Shani is holding his father Suryanarayan in his hand. Suryanarayana is the symbol of truth in Kali Yuga. As the sun rises the darkness is destroyed. Accordingly, the faults of the devotees are destroyed only by the darshan of Shanidev holding Suryanarayana in his hand.
