Laxman Siddh Temple,Dehradun


The Laxman Sidh Temple is situated around 10 kms from the main city of Dehradun, very near to the Haridwar-Rishikesh freeway. Laxman Siddh Temple lies very close (1.5km) to the highway.

On the first right turn as soon as you get into the sal forest there is a small bridge after Harrawala.It is located in the interiors of the Lachhiwala Forest in the Shivalik hill range.


The temple is presumably built in the memory of a saint named Laxman who got Siddhi (meaning excellence in spiritual powers and hence he became Siddh) and the temple came to be known as "Laxman Siddh Mandir".

A very popular destination amongst the visitors, especially for people with religious bent of mind.
Due to easy accessibility the temple is visited by a large number of people especially on Sundays.

Every Sunday a fair is held in his reminiscence where thousands of disciples pray for their own spiritual ascending.

The area is devoid of any market or any house.

There is nothing
but the virgin nature with it's the beautiful wilderness.

The Suswa River flows near the shrine enhancing the place’s beauty and tranquility.T

he forest here is composite moist deciduous with sal trees interspersed with other dense veget
ation.

It is a heaven for the ornithologists.

They can watch birds along the marshes and grasses by the side of the Song River.
