Mythological Significance: According to Hindu mythology, King Bhagirath performed intense penance at this location to bring the celestial River Ganga down to earth to purify the souls of his ancestors. Pleased by his devotion, Lord Shiva released the Ganga from his matted locks, allowing her to flow here. This event is believed to have occurred at the sacred stone near the temple, known as "Bhagirath Shila."
