Visited Nili Chhatri Temple which is an ancient lord Shiva temple since the days of Mahabharata. It is a small temple near Yamuna river and there are several ancient temples are around this temple . It is believed that Yudhishthira, the eldest Pandava established this temple and initiated their Aswamedha Yajna from here. The mandir location requires upgradation, beautification which it seriously lacking . In absence of vehicle parking, it is difficult to visit using own car.

It is believed that the eldest Pandava brother, Prince Yudhishthira of Mahabharata, established the temple and the Nigambodh Ghat adjacent to it, and conducted Aswamedha yajna from here. The temple give divine feeling of self-containment as it is in the vicinity of Nigam Bodh Ghat. Hence Karmas shall be pious to every human.

Ancient Shiva temple said to be built by the Pandava King Yudhishthir situated very close to the Nigambodh ghat. Yamuna flows just across the road and one can spend some time on the ghats also. Well maintained temple where one can go and sit peacefully. A luxury you can't afford at most hindu temples these days. Really loved the old world vibes of this temple.
