Bithoor

Description:
27 kms from the Kanpur is the small beautiful town of Bithoor, the name is supposed to be the corruption of Brahmavarta. This tranquil and sleepy town is situated on the banks of River Ganga and has religious importance attached to it. According to Hindu scriptures Lord Brahma came here for the creation of the mankind and later installed a Shiva lingam. The present day temple of Brahmeshwar Mahadeva is supposed to have the same Lingam till date. The principal Ghat is the Brahmavarta Ghat. Legend says that a nail of the horse shoe embedded in the steps of the Ghat, considered to be of the horse which Brahma rode, and is an object of reverence for the devotees to this place.
The Dhruva Teela, the Valmiki Ashram and the Sita ki rasoi are few sites in this small town today which stand proof to its past legacy.
The place regained its prominence only in the 18th -19th century during the time of the Nawabs of Awadh. But hardly anything of this recent history remains in the town now.
