Dedicated to Lord Shiva, this cave temple is beside a stream on the banks of a seasonal river where water falls on a shivling drop by drop from a rock and hence the name Tapkeshwar. It is 5.5 Kms. from the city bus stand. Tapkeshwar Shiv temple is an ancient place of worship. This is the venue for the Shivratri mela each year. The temple is situated on the banks of a rivulet, in the Garhi Cantt.
People in large numbers participate in the fair organized on the occasion of Shivratri and pay their obeisance to the deity. Cool sulphur springs around the temple make excellent bathing spots for pilgrims.
