MOUNTAIN MELODIES - Mukteshwar, Nainital










Mountain melodies constructed on a land parcel of 24600 sq. mtr. in the year 1995 at famous temple town of Mukteshwar, Distt. Nainital. The Project was offered to IAS/IFS and India Ex-patriots as a summer retreat / retirement abodes. The project was completed in the year 1999 including electricity, cemented roads, street lights, water reservoirs, guard huts etc. Mountain Melodies Is the center of Mukteshwar, The wonderful Himalayan town.
Mukteshwar is a town and tourist destination in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand, India. It sits high in the Kumaon Hills at an altitude of 2286 meters (7500 feet), 51 km from Nainital, 72 km from Haldwani, and 343 km from Delhi.
Mukteshwar is rich in scenic beauty, with magnificent views of the Indian Himalayas including India's second-highest peak, Nanda Devi.
Because of the hilly topography, agriculture in the area consists chiefly of potato fields and fruit orchards on terraces cut into the hillsides.
Mukteshwar gets its name from an 350-year-old temple of Shiva, known as Mukteshwar Dham, situated atop the highest point in the town, on the veterinary institute's campus. Close to it lie the overhanging cliffs, locally known as Chauli-ki-Jali, used for rock climbing and rappelling, with an excellent view of the valleys below. The sunrise point is at the government-run PWD guest house. One can also visit the Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI). Mukteshwar is the abode of a saint — Shri Mukteshwar Maharaj ji — who lived at the Top Cottage Temple where his samadhi is. One of his disciples, Swami Sanshudhanand ji, now stays there. The whole temple complex is a Tapovan and an ideal place for meditation.
Mukteshwar was previously "Muktesar" (as mentioned in Jim Corbett's book "The Temple Tiger"); the name changed after 1947. Until 1893 the place was known for its shrines and temple before it was selected for serum production to protect animals from cattle plague.

  4. On a 3-acre estate filled with apple, plum, peach, apricot, pear, and walnut trees, find a Homestay in Mukteshwar belonging to the Rosastays portfolio. The property's five bedrooms are each furnished with antiques, and the high ceilings and wooden floors add a cosy touch.
