About this audio guide
This guide to Kailash Mandir in Agra follows a legend from Hindu tradition: Parashurama, an avatar of Vishnu, and his father Jamadagni journey from Mount Kailash carrying sacred Shivlings granted by Lord Shiva, bound for Renuka Ashram on the Yamuna. Their route brings them to a pause at this exact spot, roughly six kilometers short of that destination. The guide also traces the annual Kailash Mela pilgrimage that fills the road outside each monsoon, retracing the same journey.
