Bhairon Mandir, Pragati Maidan
Unlike most Hindu temples, alcohol is offered as prasad here, which makes it unique. Devotees believe that visiting Bhairon Mandir after paying respects at the Kalkaji Temple or Hanuman Mandir completes their spiritual journey.
Architecture of the Temple
The temple follows traditional North Indian Nagara-style architecture, with a simple yet powerful presence. The sanctum houses the idol of Lord Bhairav in a fierce form, adorned with garlands, tilak, and sacred ash. The temple’s inner walls depict mythological scenes related to Lord Shiva and Bhairav. Despite its modest size, the temple holds deep spiritual energy and a historical ambiance.
