This premium 2-day air-package from Bangalore offers a direct and efficient pilgrimage to Baba Baidyanath Dham, one of the most sacred destinations in India. As one of the twelve revered Jyotirlingas and one of the 51 Shakti Peethas (where Sati’s heart is believed to have fallen), this tour provides a unique confluence of Shiva and Shakti energies. Designed for devotees seeking the healing blessings of Lord Shiva as the "Divine Physician," the itinerary ensures a seamless weekend of profound spirituality and scenic exploration.

Spiritual
Baba Baidyanath Jyotirlinga (Baba Dham) The centerpiece of the tour is the 72-foot high temple complex featuring 22 shrines. It houses the Kamna Linga, which legend says was established by the demon-king Ravana. A unique ritual here involves tying the peaks of the Shiva and Parvati temples with sacred red threads (Gathbandhan), symbolizing divine matrimony.

Basukinath Temple (Baba's Court) Located 43 km from Deoghar, this shrine is considered the "court" of Lord Baidyanath. Pilgrims traditionally visit this temple to complete their journey, seeking the administrative blessings of Lord Shiva in his most welcoming form.

Naulakha Mandir An architectural gem built in 1948 by Queen Charushila, this 146-foot tall temple is dedicated to Radha-Krishna. Named for the nine lakh rupees spent on its intricate stone carvings, its design is inspired by the Belur Math in West Bengal.

Tapovan Caves & Hill A verdant retreat where sages once performed penance (Tapasya). Explore the historic caves and the Taponath Mahadev Temple, which offer a peaceful natural escape and panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes.

Shivganga A sacred pool near the main temple where devotees traditionally perform a ceremonial dip before entering the Jyotirlinga sanctum. Legend states Ravana created this pool to relieve himself while carrying the Linga.
