A beautiful and a historic Temple. The place where Shiva opened his third eye and destructed everything that came in way including Daksh head, after seeing his beloved wife sati Dead for his pride .

Everytime I visit , this place always fill me with the remembrance of the sacrifices, the love , that sati Mata gave for her husband Shivji, infrastructure is awesome and safe . One can easily reach from anywhere in Uttarakhand . Inside photography isn't allowed in main Dakshewar temple and other temple of Mata ji .

Daksh Prajapati , one of the most famous character of Hindu Dharam and the Father of Sati.. Its nice to see his temple but the Ganga bank near this temple make it more attractive. Here People can fell a divine power and get mental peace..

Historic place in the small town of Kankhal, very close to Haridwar and it has a beautiful temple to Shiva. Located in a serene location on the bank of Ganga canal

An old pilgrimage but ignored by government.Govt.should take best care of it.No fans ,no foot mats for devotees the floor was as hot as sun,kidz were crying like hell.I remember my child hood memories....how i couldn't able to stand in que just because of burning floor..it is still the same from then to now...wat a pitty no improvement. it's our government to blame for ignorance.... Being a Hindu i feel this pilgrimage & like this all should be taken best care now....

This is only temple in india for Dakshprajapati shivahin yogya and Sati kund. Inside temple it is very clean and you can reach there by kankhal RK math. If u visit Haridwar please visit this place and if u in good position in your please do some charity here. As there are vendors who will change your note into coins as per barter system.

Daksha Yaggya was done here by the king Dakshak , Lord Shiva is also there on the left side and other Devtas are on right side.Go to left side sit on the river ghat or take a bath .Very nice Temple

Prajapati Daksh Temple is situated in Kankhal of Haridwar. It is believed that there was a war on Shiva Lord. Once the battle was going on here, Daksh Maharaj did not call Shiva and Sati, then when the Sati came here, Yagna remained in the middle So when Shiva came to God, Sati tried to destroy himself by jumping into the yagya kund but Lord Shiva came back behind and takes the burnt Sati away from where Sati's body True tears fell on the temple there

Shivalinga is in the mythological Shiva Linga. Its article is found in Shiva Purana.
