About Gorakhnath Temple
The Shri Gorakhnath Mandir, also known as Gorakhnath Temple, is a temple of the Nath monastic order group of the Nath tradition. Gorakhpur takes its name from Gorakhnath, who was a saint of the ‘Nath Sampradaya.’ Gorakhnath Mandir was built in his honour at the location where he did his Sadhana.
There are two temples that are run by the Gorakhnath Math, one of which is located in South of Gorakhpur and the other one is in Gorkha district in Nepal.
The Gorakhnath Temple in Gorakhpur is situated on 52 acres of land. It is exactly positioned in the heart of the city on the Gorakhpur-Sonauli state highway. The moment you reach the premises, you are filled with spirituality. The biggest centre of revered Nath Sampradaya, this imposing place is simply magnetic. The cowshed is so well maintained.
It symbolizes the true spirit of Indian culture of universal brotherhood. A must-visit place while in Gorakhpur. Very few temples in India revel in the peace and calm of the Gorakhnath temple. It is extremely well maintained, very clean, and marked with signage all across. The trust managing the temple is directly controlled by the current CM of the state, Yogi Adityanath, which makes this monument a well-preserved pilgrimage site of Hinduism.
It offers a lot of facilities for the poor person, like free medical and education. The Makr Sankranti mela is one of the biggest attractions in Gorakhnath mandir. For more information, please visit the official website https://www.gorakhnathmandir.in/

What people say about Gorakhnath Temple
A very peaceful and beautiful temple, boating is also available, and for boating, the price is 20rs only. The very clean mandir and monks were also very nice.
A very good place to visit, I insist everyone visit at least once in a whole lifetime. I appreciate the agriculture in this place, and security is too tight. And they will help normal people in a polite way.
Beautiful temple in Gorakhpur with a huge area, there are so many goddesses there. Temples are famous for the god Gorakhnath
Gorakhnath temple is quite huge and has a spiritual atmosphere and good security in the temple. Good place maintained by Yogi Adityanath Ji
