Bagnath Temple, Bageshwar

Awesome place in the lap of Himalayas, if you visit Nainital then you should come to Baghnath also.

Bagnath Temple is located in Bageshwar town at the confluence of Sarayu and Gomti rivers and dedicated to the Lord Shiva (who is also known as Bagnath), who incarnated himself in the form of a tiger (the Bagh), at this place. The Bagnath Temple houses Chaturmukhi Shivling (the Four Head Idol) and many other Hindu deities Idols.

As Per The Theological, Brahmarishi Vashishtha was leading Sarayu from Mansarovar to Ayodhya. When both of them arrived at this place, Vashishtha found Rishi Markandey in intense penance. He thought if, me and sarayu proceed further, the noise would disturb the Rishi. So he halted there, resulting the increase in the Sarayu’s water level. So Brahmarshi Vashishtha and Sarayu requested to Lord Shiva to find a solution. The Lord Shiva arrived with his consort Parvati and who assumed the form of a tiger with Goddess Parvati assuming the form of a cow. When attacked the cow made a noise which awoke Rishi Markandeya and Vashishtha could progress with river Saryu to Ayodhya. Ever since Lord Shiva is worshipped here as Tiger and the town was called Vyaghreshwar and later on Bageshwar. The temple where Shiva was worshipped was known as Vyaghranath and know is Bagnath.
