HARIDWAR - MAHADWAR MANDIRS

Bilkeswara  Mahadev Mandir

It is dedicated to Siva and lies to the west of railway station. Here offering of bilva leaves is given top priority and hence the name Bilkeswara Mahadev. Next, the Dakshineswara Mahadev temple situated in Kankhal, a suburb of this holy thirtha kshetra lies on the other side of the river. It was built in commemoration of Lord Siva's descent from Kailas at this very spot to take the corpse of Sati after immolation. And it is here all the gods appeared to appease Lord Siva's anger and to save Daksha from annihilation. The Sivalinga is quite impressive and devotees worship it with Ganges water as done at Banaras. These places are sanctified by the association of Siva and Sati. Hence visitation for adoration with unusual exuberance of religious zeal.

All these lie in Haridwar, the pilgrim centre of All India importance. So every transport facility is available round the clock.
