The temple was an abode of a kind, hosting the serene view of the panchvati as the stairs lead you to a very scenic structure. This temple can be a quick detour to the panchghat and mesmerize you with its architecture. It's accessible with the way hoarding has been put up but the stairs can be a bit of risky journey. Overall, it was amazing to experience this pilgrimage.

The temple was the place where Lord Shiva performed penance after taking a holy dip in Ramkund to wash off his sin.

Har har Mahadev! Kapaleshwar is my All time go to Mandir to pray to Lord Shiva. I visit Kapaleshwar every Monday and the vibe and peace this place has is unmatched, it feels like paradise inside the Mandir. Om Namah shivay

The temple was the place where Lord Shiva performed penance after taking a holy dip in Ramkund to wash off his sin. The reason why there's no Nandi statue in the temple is because Lord Shiva regarded Nandi as a Guru or teacher and hence, there is no Nandi to guard the Kapaleshwar Temple.

Too much living and Holy place where energy is alive, Lord Mahadev Temple

Shri Hanuman Bhagwan ji pics that I have shared above are in the premises of Shri Kapaleshwar Mahadev Mandir. Also shared pics of Mahadev. Temple premises is big. I visited the temple in the morning around 6.30 am. Very peaceful, positive vibrations and positive aura, silent & peaceful environment to get the blessings from Shri Mahadev. I would suggest you to visit the temple in the morning. You can also visit according to your feasible time. Rush expected here at any special events. || Har Har Mahadev || || Jai Bajrangbali ||

Kapaleshwar Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is located in Nashik district and is near the Godavari River and Ramkund. The temple is different from other Shiva temples, because as in usual Shiva temples, there is no Nandi at Kapaleshwar Temple. This temple was initially built in 1763 and was renovated by Peshwe. This temple is different from other God Shiva’s temples as the idol of Nandi is not kept at the entrance of this temple. As per a legend, God Shiva accidently killed a cow Gohatya and then went to Nandi for a solution to cleanse his sin. Nandi advised God Shiva to take a bath in Ramkund for redemption. God Shiva did as he was told and then conducted a ‘Jaap’ at this temple for penance. He also adopted Nandi as his Guru and due to this no deity of Nandi is placed to guard this ancient temple.

Panchavati indeed holds immense significance in Hindu mythology as the place where several events from the Ramayana unfolded. Each of the temples there, like Kapaleshwar Mahadev, Sree Kalaram Mandir, Sita Cave, and the temples along the Godavari River, contributes to the sacred ambiance and the spiritual essence of the region. It's a beautiful convergence of history, legend, and devotion.

Kapaleshwar Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is located in Nashik district and is near the Godavari River and Ramkund. The temple is different from other Shiva temples, because as in usual Shiva temples, there is no Nandi at Kapaleshwar Temple. Nandi is Lord Shiva’s vehicle and its idol is placed at the entrance of all Shiva temples. A local legend says that once Shiva happened to kill a cow by mistake. Killing of a cow or ‘gohatya’ is regarded as a sin amongst Hindus because cow is worshipped as a God by Hindus. Nandi advised him to take a bath in Ramkund to wash off his sin. Lord Shiva obeyed him and after taking a bath at the Kund, he did penance here and it is believed that the temple is located at the same place where Lord Shiva did his penance. Because Nandi gave him a valuable advice, it is believed that Lord Shiva regarded Nandi as a Guru or teacher and hence, there is no Nandi to guard the Kapaleshwar Temple. The best day to visit the temple is Monday, considered to Lord Shiva’s day but every Saturday, too, special prayers are held here which is attended by hundreds of devotees. On Mondays and during Shivaratri, there is a huge rush of devotees and the queue can be quite long.

Historic and holy place in middle of the Nashik city, Lord Shiva's temple having one unique thing which is, In this temple Nandi is not located in front of Shivlinga and this is only one temple having this uniqueness.

Panchwati.....a place where all the incidents with maa sita happend.the holy feel.....all 5 temples are there kapaleshwar mahadev....sree kalaram mandir.....sita cave.....and gautami (godavari river temple).

The temple was built at a place where lord Shiva took a holy dip in Ramkund . Also the temple has no Nandi in as believed that Nandi was guru or teacher of lord Shiva in kapaleshwar. As I visited the temple at the time of Hari har bhet which is the holy Milan of lord Shiva and lord Vishnu 😍 . Thus believed that in this period of Darshana lord Vishnu grants wishes and lord Shiva washes out sins.

There is no nandi in this Shiva temple ! Yes that’s thing which make this temple unique ! Peaceful place as it is Shiva’s temple ! Har Har Mahadev 🔱

One Of the best religious place to visit for the devotees of LORD SHIVA

Peaceful temple located near the main market/Godavari gomukh in panchvati Nashik. Along with lord Shiva temple, there are several others surrounding it, overall I would recommend you to visit the temple during morning hours like 7-8 am to get a complete positive aura and the essence of the place. It is soothing and has such great vibes even if you are not a very religious person.

This was the place where Lord shiv did Tapasya to get forgiven from the Sin of Brahm hatya, after he killed the 5th head of Bramha ji which used to cuss him every time, so in anger Mahadev cut his 5th head. Thats why Lord Bramha only have 4 heads. This is the only temple of Lord Shiv where there isn't Nandi ji placed beside of Shivling. Lots of things to explore here. Various life events from Ramayan has happened here. Book an auto, it will take around 300 rs. and give you a tour of these 21 places in Panchavati and Tapovan.

Best place when you need silence. Good structure of temple. Best time to visit this temple is before 8 in the morning and after 8 in the evening

Very holy place. You can visit here. Situated in a very crowded area this place has great importance in hindu mythology ! When you enter this temple on the entrance itself some women n men will sell flowers and a small packet of milk total of rupees 10. You can buy them. Also they won't allow you to give a closer look to the shrine of shiv linga. But outside the temple there is another shiva linga whom you can devote that milk on your own way !

This is a beautiful temple of Shivji. The architecture is world class. You can get milk, flowers inside the temple.

Absolutely pure and sacred Jay mahakal

Peaceful place, one of the powerful shivaling

Divine darshan lots of peace

Not a specific Temple I could say, visit every Temple nearby that area. You feel like you are in 19th century in India.

Very old Lord Shiva devotional temple !!! It is just amazing and mind peaceful place !!!

I could read an interesting story of Lord Shiva cutting head of Lord Bramha and then finding cure to wash out the sins (see photo showing complete story - do read it in full) The temple is nice and clean. Only issue is of car parking which is practically impossible to do, so you can hire an autorickshaw to go on round trip for all important points, they charge from 300 to 400 Rs for a trip of two hours which is worth spending for. Outside this temple I could see line of people to know their future, there are famous Jyotishi (looks like) just outside this temple, where people were in queue to know what is written in their future!

👍👍

Sacred and source of positive energy

Holi place

This is lord shivas temples situated very near to Ramkund area of Panchawati . This is one the oldest temple of Hindus visited most and especially on Monday Needs renovation as there are lot many crack and trees growing in cracks This is very serene place and worship temple Must visit to take blessings of lord shiva

What I can say about this place.. This is the place in Nashik which you can visit at any point of time. You can reach here either by taking Auto-rickshaw or bus from central bus station of Nashik. Whenever you want peace just visit the place..Crowd is more on Monday and Saturday nights because of Arti & Palkhi of lord Shiva.. Place and ambience always gives such vibes that you will forget your own problems automatically.
