Shani Dham Temple


The Shani Dham Temple in the Indian capital of Delhi is the tallest statue of Lord Shani in the world. The temple, which is situated on Chhatarpur Road near Asola, is 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) from the Chhatarpur Temple, about 8–9 kilometres (5.0–5.6 mi) away from Mehrauli, and 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) from Qutub Minar.[1] It is equipped with the natural Rock Idol of Lord Shani, as a chief deity.
Apart from this, the other man-made idols are also established since long. These idols were being worshipped, adored for long- long times but in last few years i.e. on May 31, 2003 when the largest radiant Shani Idol was unveiled by Anant Shree Vibhushit Jagat Guru Shankracharya Swami Madhavasharam Ji Maharaj, after which it has become the center of attraction for the devotees of Lord Shani.
