The story of young Dhruva sitting all alone in the dense forest meditating on Lord Vishnu has been narrated to us a million times while growing up. How a boy of five years found solace in Lord Vishnu and sought His blessings with a single-minded goal is truly an inspirational story described in the Hindu scriptures.His entire body resonated the sacred mantra imparted to him by Narada Devarshi and he sat engrossed in the contemplation of Lord Vishnu for six months with no water, no food, uncaring if it was cold, raining or hot. Such was his devotion, that Dhruva had become an epitome of renunciation (tyāga) and when the Lord gave him sakshatkara, he was in a state of ecstatic bliss with tears of joy pouring down his eyes.The eternal Sapta Rishis who in ancient Indian and modern astronomy are the asterism of the Big Dipper called Saptarishi mandalam were in awe of his tapas (penance and austerities) and along with Lord Vishnu gave him the most exalted position of Dhruva-Pada (Pole Star) in the wide expansive space. They offered their prostrations and circumambulated Dhruva who is deemed to be immortal and imperishable even at the time of the great deluge.Dhruva is believed to have been born in Bithoor and the spot where he sat for meditation is a small mound named Dhruva Tila. This serene place full of trees, sweet-smelling flowers, birds and monkeys overlooks the holy Ganga River. Archaeological excavations conducted here uncovered rare copper coins, copper spear, axe, knife, figurines, copper circular rings and others that are said to be of the 2500 – 250 BCE period. Historians opine that Dhruva Tila is of great antiquity and most likely of the pre-Vedic period.The temples seen today have been built by the Marathas under the leadership of Nana Saheb Peshwa II in the typical Maratha style of architecture. There is an old Durga Temple next to Dhruva Tila as well as a shrine dedicated to Lord Hanuman. An ashram in honour of Sant Ramdas, the Guru of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj has...

ध्रुव टीला उत्तर प्रदेश के कानपुर जिले के बिठूर में स्थित एक पवित्र और ऐतिहासिक स्थल है। यह स्थान हिंदू पौराणिक कथाओं में वर्णित बालक ध्रुव की तपस्या से जुड़ा हुआ है, जिन्होंने भगवान विष्णु की कृपा प्राप्त करने के लिए कठोर तप किया था। ध्रुव की तपस्या से प्रसन्न होकर, भगवान विष्णु ने उन्हें आकाश में अटल ध्रुव तारे के रूप में स्थान दिया।

ऐतिहासिक और धार्मिक महत्व

ध्रुव टीला वह स्थान माना जाता है जहाँ ध्रुव ने एक पैर पर खड़े होकर छह महीने तक तपस्या की थी। यह स्थल गंगा नदी के किनारे एक छोटे टीले पर स्थित है, जो हरियाली और शांत वातावरण से घिरा हुआ है। यहाँ एक प्राचीन दुर्गा मंदिर, भगवान हनुमान का मंदिर और संत रामदास (छत्रपति शिवाजी महाराज के गुरु) का आश्रम भी स्थित है। इन मंदिरों का निर्माण मराठा शासक नाना साहेब पेशवा II के नेतृत्व में मराठा स्थापत्य शैली में किया गया था। 

पुरातात्विक महत्व

ध्रुव टीला पर किए गए पुरातात्विक उत्खननों में 2500 ईसा पूर्व से 250 ईसा पूर्व के बीच के तांबे के सिक्के, भाले, कुल्हाड़ी, चाकू, मूर्तियाँ और तांबे की अंगूठियाँ प्राप्त हुई हैं, जो इस स्थल की प्राचीनता को दर्शाते हैं। 

यात्रा जानकारी • स्थान: ध्रुव टीला, बिठूर, कानपुर, उत्तर प्रदेश • समय: प्रातः 7 बजे से सायं 5 बजे तक खुला रहता है। • कैसे पहुँचें: • कानपुर से दूरी: कानपुर शहर से लगभग 45 मिनट की दूरी पर स्थित है। • परिवहन: कानपुर से बिठूर तक ऑटो रिक्शा, बस या साइकिल रिक्शा द्वारा पहुँचा जा सकता है। • विशेष आकर्षण: गंगा नदी के किनारे नौका विहार का आनंद लिया जा सकता है।  

ध्रुव टीला एक शांत और आध्यात्मिक वातावरण प्रदान करता है, जहाँ आप ध्यान, साधना और आत्मचिंतन कर सकते हैं। यह स्थल न केवल धार्मिक आस्था का केंद्र है, बल्कि इतिहास और प्रकृति प्रेमियों के लिए भी आकर्षण का केंद्र है।

It is birth place of dhruva. Actual it was a kila so it was called dhruva kila, now the kila is no more , only traces are left, and the name gradually changed from dhruva kila to dhruva teela. The place is very ancient, you need to divert a little from brahmavart ghat to visit this place. Roads are proper. A small temple is there. Beautiful view of gangaji from this place. Place is not very popular as it is not known to many, ybut worth the visit. Its very enchanting to see our ancient treasured culture which we don't even bother to know...

Positive reviews "Beautiful and serene place at banks of river Ganga, "Best historical place, "Quite place, "Good view of the Ganges River, and "Calm place for worship and meditation. Lack of proper maintenance in some temples. Dhruv Teela is a small mud hill on the banks of the Ganges River. It's the birthplace of Dhruv Maharaj, a devotee of Lord Vishnu.
