A serene place to visit and spend quality time. 60-65 kms road drive from Kolhapur. It is worth visiting. The vibes are so positive and you get mental peace. It is a stunning example of ancient architecture. Kopeshwar Temple is at Khidrapur, Kolhapur district, Maharashtra. It is a Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva. This temple is in Maharashtra It is also accessible from Sangli as well. It was built in the 12th century by Shilahara king Gandaraditya between 1109 and 1178 CE. It is to the east of Kolhapur, ancient & artistic on the bank of the Krishna river. Legend has it that Lord Shiva was furious when sati Parvati jumped into Daksha's sacrifice. Lord Vishnu then brought Shiva to the temple to calm him down. Hence the temple got the name as 'Kopeshwar' which translates to the furious god. Nearest Station and Bus stand : Kolhapur Railway Station / S.T Bus depot in Kolhapur city.

The second battle took place between Shilahara king Bhoj-II and Devagiri Yadav king Singhan-II, during which king Bhoj-II was captured by Yadavas and was kept captive on the fort of Panhala. This event is recorded in the 1213 CE inscription near the south entrance of the temple. This battle brought the rule of the Kolhapur branch of Shilaharas to end.[1] There are about a dozen inscriptions on the inside and outside of this temple, out of which only a couple of inscriptions are in good condition now. These inscriptions reveal the names of few kings and their officers. All these inscriptions except one are in Kannada language and script. The only Devanagari inscription in Sanskrit language is by Singhan-II and is located on the outer wall near South entrance of the temple.
