Temples Bareilly is also home to a host of famous Hindu temples. Four Nath (Shiva) temples are situated on the cities four corners, the Alakhnath, Trivatinath, Madhinath, and Dhopeshwarnath temples. Another historical temple of Lord Shiva is in Lala Champak Rai Ki Bagia near Alakhnath temple in front of Ganga mandir. It is roughly 200 years old. Due to limited access, having no paved roads leading up to it, is infrequented by devotess when compared to more popular counterparts. A true hidden jewel. It is also referred to as the Jagganth Temple. Near Alakhnath temple is the Tulsi math. Tulsidas, the acclaimed writer of Ramacharitamanas, and said to have have been the re-incarnation of Valmiki, the author of Ramayana, made this site his home sometime around 1600 CE. Another culturally significant temple is the Chunne Miyan's Lakshmi Narayan Mandir (located in Katra Manrya street near Bara Bazar). Its origin dates back to the time when Hindus migrating out from the recently formed Pakistan at the time of independence in 1947, came to settle in Bareilly. These Hindu migrants built a small place of worship amongst some existing ruins but later discovered that the place belonged to Fazal-ul-Rahman, who was also known as 'Chunne Miyan' (his nickname). Chunne Miyan to gave not only land and also financial aid for the construction of the temple. Since then the temple is popularly known as Chunne Miyan's Mandir and is situated in the Katra maanrai region of Koharapeer. There is another reputed temple of lord DoopeshwarNath which is considered the place where Draupadi and Drishtadyumn were born by a grace of lord shiva in Mahabharata era.
