Nageshwarnath Temple
Nageshwar Nath temple dedicated to Lord Shiva is located in Shri Ram Ki Paidi. It is believed that it was built by Kush ji, the younger son of Shri Ram. Legend has it that once while bathing in Saryu Ji, Kush Ji lost his armlet, which was returned by a serpent girl. The snake girl became fascinated by Kush ji, because she was a devotee of Shiva, hence Kush ji got this temple built for that snake girl. This temple was in good condition till the reign of King Vikramaditya ji. In 1750, it was renovated by Shri Naval Rai ji, the minister of Nawab Safdarjung. The festival of Shivratri is celebrated with great pomp in this temple. Shiva procession also has great importance here. Lakhs of visitors and devotees are present here during the festival of Shivratri.
