Shivrinarayan Nar Narayan Temple

The Nar Narayan Temple is a prominent Hindu temple in Shivrinarayan town, Janjgir-Champa district, Chhattisgarh, located at the Triveni Sangam of the Mahanadi, Shivnath and Jonk rivers. Dedicated to Lord Narayana (Vishnu), it is a major pilgrimage centre linked to the Ramayana tradition of Shabari. Noted for its 11th-century origins, riverside setting and religious importance, it is often described as the Prayag of Chhattisgarh.

Visitors can expect a riverside temple complex at the confluence of three rivers with a main shrine dedicated to Nar Narayan (Vishnu), smaller shrines, pillared mandapas and stone architecture. The surroundings include ghats at the Triveni Sangam, shops selling offerings, and open courtyards for darshan and aarti. The atmosphere is devotional with pilgrims performing rituals, and visitors can explore the temple interiors, river ghats and nearby Shabari-related sites on foot.
