Summary

The Om Banna Temple in Rajasthan, India, is a unique shrine dedicated to a Royal Enfield motorcycle believed to house the spirit of Om Singh Rathore. Following Rathore's mysterious 1988 death, the motorcycle reportedly repeatedly returned to the site of his accident despite police efforts to secure it. Today, travelers visit the shrine to offer items like alcohol and flowers, seeking the motorcycle's protection as a "guardian angel" for safe journeys.
