Mahakaleshwar Temple of Ujjain is located in the beautiful city of Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh and can be a subject of curiosity as it is believed to be self-existing or a "Swayambhu idol is a platform". Shakti Peetha and Jyotirlingam can be seen here together and this is the only temple facing south. It is believed that Lord Shiva incarnated here to save his devotees from untimely deaths.
