Sightseeing

Jageshwar is located at an elevation of 1,870 mts above sea level and at a distance of 37 kms from Almora. This is a bit of a cliche: there are a total 125 temples and hundreds of statues in Jageshwar Dham but usually it is stated that the number of temples are 124 due to lack of awareness. As I have personally visited this place, I can tell that there is a hoarding outside of the temple where you can see the exact number of temples. The beauty of the place is elevated by the Deodar trees and the Shiv Jata Ganga which makes its way into the temple. The site is preserved under laws and managed by the Archaeological Survey of India(ASI). The place celebrates Jageshwar monsoon Festival during the Hindu calendar month of Shravan and the annual Maha Shivratri Mela, in early spring. Believed to be the abode of one of the twelve “Jyotirlingas”, it is one of the most important religious places for Hindus in the state of Uttarakhand. This is a firm faith that Lord Shiva would come meditate here, surrounded by the thick Deodar forest. It is an important tourist destination of Kumaon and receives thousands of visitors every year.
