Detail InformationEdit

Shri Kainchi Dham Mandir is a term used for two sharp hairpin bends of the motor road in local dialect hence the name. It has no relation with scissors.This place has achieved recognition owing to the ashram of the famous Neem Karoli Maharaj. Founded by the famous Maharaj Neem Karoli Baba and is very well maintained and kept neat and clean. The concept of this place came into existence in 1942 when Maharaj Neem Karoli along with Shri Poornanand of the Kainchi Village proposed building an Ashram here dedicated to Sombari Maharaj and Sadhu Premi Baba who used to perform yagnyas in this very place. Later in 1962, their dream materialised and the forest from this area was cleared and a rectangular platform was constructed. After due permission from the Forest Conservator, Maharaj Ji acquired the lease of this land and constructed a Temple devoted to Lord Hanuman over that rectangular platform and adjacent to it is the Kainchi Temple and an Ashram built for devotees.
