i went to this temple with friend and their family. This temple is generally known as #Baba Mahendra Nath hindu temple.It is located as Mahen village .The temple houses Lord Bhole NathStone Shiwling in standing posture, separately housed within the premises. The temple is maintained very neat and tidy. it is painted white and looks very nice. There is lots of god painting on the wall around the temple And Behind the temple there are a beautiful pond And lots of shope around the Temple . The structure is as per vedic styles, prevailing in south india. There were priests, with vedic knowledge, conducting various ceremonies pertaining to the temple poojas etc. this temple was crowded. there was a marriage getting solemnised in front of the deity, when we visited the temple.Peaceful place to visit. Nice ambience. Good to go there with family. Should never miss a place like this . 10 minute drive from Madnpur .. Can be a bit hot on warmer days because of the sun reflecting on the tiles. If you're nervous about not knowing the customs, I say just go! Feeling very peaceful The people there are all very nice and happy to show you which way to go. My son loved walking by all of the animal statues and making their animal sounds. There are also a lot of westerners there just to take pics, so it is open to all ! Jai Bhole Nath...
