Shree Kapaleshwar Mahadev Mandir Nashik Nashik's Kapaleshwar Temple is sacred to Lord Shiva. Hop, skip and jump away from the iconic Ramkund, the temple is quite unusual because, like other Shiva shrine, there is no statue of Lord Nandi, the gatekeeper of Shiva. According to the legends, 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.
Kapaleshwar Temple is located quite close to the Ramkund, barely two kilometers away from the main bus stand. One can reach here, by taking a bus, taxi or three wheelers from anywhere in the city.
At every Monday and at PRADOSH 6.30 PM there is a Pooja at RAMKUNDA GANGA GHAT of Shree Kapaleshwar Mandir.
