Bet Dwarka is considered a part of the ancient city of Dwarka in Indian epic literature, the abode of Krishna, found in the Mahabharata and Skanda Purana.
It derives its name Shankhodhar from the fact that the island is a large source of conch shells (Shankh). Archaeological remains found under the sea suggest the existence of a settlement during late Harappan period of Indus Valley Civilization, or immediately after it. It can be reliably dated to the time of the Maurya Empire.
Mythology suggests this temple as Home while, the Temple located in Dwarka as Raj Sabha [office] for Shri Dwarkadhish.
