Markandeya Temple is a famous shrine, situated 20km from Bilaspur city. The temple is consecrated to Sage Markandeya, who lived and meditated here. Legends speak of a tunnel that connected Markandeya and Vyas Caves and sages used to visit one another through this unfathomable route. A night fair held in the closeby spring on the Baisakhi day attracts a huge number of faithfuls. Kiratpur Sahib is the nearest railhead, 60km from Markandeya Temple.
