Thane, December 21 : After nearly 10 centuries, the striking Shiva temple in the Ambernath town here is poised for a huge makeover with several world-class facilities for the devotees and tourists who throng there.
The spectacular stone temple, around 60 km north of Mumbai, is considered among the oldest and still-functional Shiva temples in Maharashtra.
