Binsar Mahadev Temple: Feel The True Peace of Heaven
Heaven on Earth! Yes you are reading it right, Binsar Mahadev Temple is the place near Ranikhet that is a true contender of this title. Actually
I am not alone who is having this opinion but everyone who visited this place
says this. Don’t believe it? Let me show you some examples!
Pinak From Pune Says: "Just before Ranikhet a lovely place”
A wonderful place to visit to feel the calmness of mind. Binsar Mahadev Mandir is in the middle of dense plantation. Lord Shankar, Lord Dattatrya, Laxmi-Narayan etc are the idols in the temple. But apart from the idols the place itself is the reason to be there. Stay for a while, don't be in a hurry to leave the place...

Out of world experience. This temple is en-route from Ranikhet to Ramnagar and must visit. Very peaceful and holy. It's also call Swargashram. Surrounding area and natural beauty around is also amazing.

Harish from Delhi Says: "Binsar is heaven on the earth"
Wow feeling when I first reached at Binsar. Located very near to the Ranikhet, this temple is an ideal place to visit if you are on the Uttarakhand tour. This temple is full with deep silence and peace. A best place for doing the yoga and meditation. This temple is best known for the Binsar fair locally known as Binsar Kotik. This temple is very near to the village Soni and one can reach there by taking private jeep from Ranikhet.

The Legends
According to legends, in the nearby village the Manihar’s (Glass blowers) family used to live and spending their life. They send their pets (Cows & Goats) to the nearby jungle of Binsar to graze. There was a milch cow in that group but whenever she came back to her owner he found that there is no milk when he try to fetch milk from her. One day the cow’s owner followed the cow in the jungle and found that the cow is spreading her milk over a rock, and the rock is drinking all the milk. After seeing this the manihar filled with anger! He pushed the cow and hit the rock with the back portion of his ax. The torrent of blood started flowing from the rock. He take his cow back to home. That night a Baba come in the dream of the manihar and asked him to leave the place and take all manihars with him else he will destroy them.
