About Singheshwar Sthan
The main Shiva temple of the Kosi region, 8 km north of Madhepura, tied by tradition to the sage Shringi who performed the yagna that gave Dasharatha his sons. The Shivratri mela here runs for about a month and is one of the largest in north Bihar. Shravan Mondays are also packed. Outside those windows it is an ordinary busy temple town.
