Gokarna to Murudeshwar!!

Murdeshwar is a town in state of Karnataka, India, It is famous for the world's third tallest Shiva statue, the town lies on the coast of the Laccadive Sea and is also famous for the Murudeshwara Temple.
Legend behind Murudeshwara Temple- Raavan wanted to attain immortality and he worshipped Lord Shiva to receive the Atma-Linga (also referred to as the soul of Shiva). Lord Shiva was pleased by his dedication and rewarded him the Atma-Linga. However, other gods feared the consequences of this, so Lord Ganesha was requested to stop Raavan from taking the Linga back to Lanka (presently known as Sri Lanka). Lord Ganesha was well aware that Raavan was a devoted and religious person, so he used this trait effectively to obtain the Atma-Linga back from Raavan. While Raavan was about to perform his evening prayer (sandhya-vandanam), Lord Ganesh appeared in the form of a shepherd boy and agreed to take care of the Linga. Raavan returned late after performing the rituals, so Ganesh called out for him three times and then left the Linga on the ground, which firmly got installed at that location. Raavan, knowing that he has been tricked, tried to apply all the force to uproot the Linga from the ground. All that immense force broke the Atma-Linga into pieces and it is known that one of the pieces fell at Kanduka Giri, which is where the present-day main temple of Murudeshwar is built.
