Kotdwar Lansdowne - Kanva Ashram

Kanwa Ashram said to be the birth place of Price Bharat after which "Bharat" (India) is named.
The ashram itself is situated about 30kms from Kotdwar in a remote hamlet. Not visited by many people, mainly due to lack of awareness about it. The surroundings and the priest are nice. The condition of ashram is not so good and needs some maintenance.
A place worth visiting.

Hey Sridhar,

Thanks for your comment.

Kanva Ashram is near Kotdwar (about 20kms outside). Actually this ashram was in a secluded spot, I didnt find any other temples nearby.

This ashram is supposed to be the spot where Prince Bharat (from Mahabahrat) grew up..
