Shri Naguesh Temple is located about 25 kms from Panaji, in the village of Bandode. This ancient temple, dedicated to Lord Naguesh also known as Nagnath, an incarnation of Lord Shiva, was established in 1413. The present temple structure has been renovated and patched up around the year 1880. The Shiva lingam is in the inner shrine and in front of the shrine, there is an image of Nandi (Lord Shiva's vehicle) carved in black stone. The 'sabha mantap' (i.e main hall) contains exquisite specimen of intricate wood carvings depicting scenes from the Epics, Ramayana and Mahabharatha and wooden images of Astadikpal and Gandharva. A five storied lamp tower (deep stambh) with colourful images of gods and goddesses around the base is located near the temple. The temple has a magnificent ancient 'tali' (water reservoir) surrounded by palms.
