Bilkeshwar Mahadev Mandir at Haridwar



We came to know about Bilkeshwar Mahadev Mandir from the local residents of Haridwar. It is an old temple and very famous among the locals. Situated near the Railway Station of Haridwar, Bilkeshwar Mahadev is a small temple, which also has a Shivalinga and Nandi made of stone, along with a normal shivalinga in the temple. Here are the pictures of all of them-










 It also has some small temples of Ganeshji, Hanumaanji, Mahadev and Mata Rani.










The area is a bit remote, we have to walk uphill, from the main road. The road has trees on both sides which seems like a jungle, at the evening, when we went there, that day. But one can always find devotees in the temple area. The road also has a Hanumaanji mandir, before the Bilkeshwar Mahadev mandir. I have also heard that there is 'Gouri Kund' near this temple, but we could not visit that.



Do visit the temple in your next trip to Haridwar :)



Om Namah Shivaya.
