Neelkanth Mahadev Temple - Neelkanth Mahadev Temple is a sacred and famous temple located 32 km from Rishikesh. Scenically situated on a hill at a height of 1330 meters.
The Neelkanth Mandir is associated with a famous Hindu mythology. It narrates the story behind the temple’s unique name. According to the Hindu legend, the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple stands at the same place where Lord Shiva consumed the poison. This was at the time of Samudra Manthan or the churning of the oceans by devas (gods) and asuras (demons)
Shiva stopped the poison in his throat to enter his body due to which his throat turned blue. Therefore, Shiva got the name “Neelkanth” meaning “The one having a blue throat”. To commemorate Shiva’s sacrifice for mankind, devotees built this temple at the same spot where this event took place.
