Sleeping Hanuman. Have you ever heard of it, if no then pay a visit to Bhadra Hanuman Temple situated very close to Ellora Caves.

There are two places in India where you find Hanuman in sleeping position, one is here and the other is in Allahabad, stated our rickshaw driver.

Bhadra Maruti Temple aka Bhadra Hanuman Temple is located in Khuldabad and is thronged by devotees all year round.

Mythology states that on Hanuman return journey from Sri Lanka, to bring a Sanjivani herb for Laxman, rested here, A statue of Hanuman is found in sleeping position here and worshipped.

The temple is remodeled and is beautifully carved with small carvings of Hanuman all over it.

As we were wearing shorts we didn’t visit the temple premises but only saw it from the outside.

This place is a must for all Hanuman Bhakts aka followers.
