The temple itself is 2000 years old and is located in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. It is known by different names like the Navagraha Temple or Shani Mandir and different people refer to it differently.

The locals refer to it as the Triveni Teertham. The myth surrounding the temple tells us that the temple was built by King Vikramaditya around 2000 years ago on the banks of the Shipra River. It is also speculated that Vikramaditya started Vikram Samvat for the construction of this temple. The idol of Shani Dev is accompanied by the idol of Dhayya Shani.
Historically and religiously the Shri Navagraha Shani Temple holds a lot of importance as it is the first temple where Shani Dev sits in the form of Lord Shiva. Another aspect of the temple is that the temple is said to be dedicated to the planets of our solar system. The nearby presence of the Triveni Ghat and the convergence of 3 rivers: Shipra, Gandaki, and Saraswati is considered to render the place sacred.
