Beyt Dwarka, Devbhumi Dwarka district, Gujarat · 22.4689°, 69.1306°
A shrine on the island of Beyt Dwarka that is rare in showing Hanuman together with his son Makaradhwaja, an unusual pairing given Hanuman's celibacy. Pilgrims to Dwarka commonly include it in their circuit.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
Makaradhwaja is said to have been born of a drop of Hanuman's sweat swallowed by a fish, and father and son met in battle during the Ramayana.
