Hastinapur is a small Greene town in Meerut district of Uttar Pradesh state, India. Hastinapur is mentioned in Hindu texts like Mahabharata & is also mentioned in ancient Jain texts. Hastinapur is situated on the banks of river budhi Ganga.

There are many Jain temples, Gurudwaras, spiritual centers, meditation centers here. Dharamshala for Jain followers. It is mainly on Meerut Bijnor Road.

:writing_hand:︎Pandeshwar Temple:-

I came here mainly with the plan to see the Shiva temple of Pandava times.

Pandeshwar Temple Located in the historical place of the ancient city of Hastinapur, Pandeshwar Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is said locally that this temple is the place where the Pandavas learned the Vedas. There is a temple of Hindu goddess Kali on a hill like place and many Hindu ashrams are also present nearby. It is said that during the Mahabharata period, the Pandavas had established the Pandeshwar Mahadev Temple. And at this very place worshiped and received blessings of Lord Shiva. And that was the reason why I came to see it and know it.:yin_yang:

Nice coverage of Hastinapur @ShailendraOjha which is the heart of the culture and ancient history of India.

Are there also locations of the Mahabharat war in this place?

i don’t know, but a lot of people say Here is Pandav spent time, & Pandeshwar Shivalinga is established by Pandav. lots of stories related about the pandavas in this area but i can’t prove those stories, because here i didn’t see any archiological board of India board established anything. any authentication. yes, but Hastinapur is mentioned in Veda Purana.
