Parikrama of the Kamadgiri Mountain

The circumambulation or “Parikrama” of the Kamadgiri Mountain is the principal attraction of Chitrakoot, a revered pilgrimage site. It is also the location of the Bharat Milap Temple. Devotees come here to seek the blessings of Lord Kamatanath and Lord Shri Ram by circumambulating the Kamadgiri Hill. According to tradition, the darshan (sight) and parikrama (circumambulation) of Kamadgiri bestow fulfillment of all human desires. The pilgrimage route spans approximately 5 kilometers, touching various sites in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. Along this entire path, devotees encounter four major temple complexes – Prachin Mukharvind, Bharat Milap, Dwitiya Mukharvind, Choupada Mandir, and Baraha Ke Hanuman Ji.
