Nageshwarnath Temple: Established by Kush

December 12, 2025 Friday

Located at Ram Ki Paidi, Nageshwarnath Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is believed to have been established by Kush, the son of Lord Ram. Legend says Kush lost his armlet in the Saryu river, which was found by a Nag-Kanya (Snake Princess) who fell in love with him.
