Bhagwan Valmiki Tirath Asthan

HISTORY - Bhagwan Valmiki Tirath Asthan, dedicated to Maharishi Valmiki ji is situated 11 km west of Amritsar on Amritsar Lopoke road. As per the mythological beliefs, The temple dates back to the period of Ramayana and the place is famous for the ashram of sage Maharishi Valmiki. It is the place where the sage gave shelter to Sita, wife of Rama when she was abandoned after the Lanka Victory. The place is birthplace of Lava and Kusha, sons of Ramachandra, in ashrama of Saint Balmiki. The great epic Ramayana is also said to have been written here by Maharishi Valmiki. It is also believed that the fight between Lord Ram Chandra's forces and Lav and Kush had also taken place at Ram Tirth.

Worth visiting Luv Kush temple, everyone should be aware of this temple, we only came to know from our driver. Luv Kush got their education from there only. The tree is also there, where kush tied the horse of Ashwedha

Very peaceful and serene place, little off from the city. We visited during the daytime, still it was enjoyable and a cool breeze was flowing. Big structure, huge lake with lots of fishes and tortoises in it. My kid enjoyed feeding them. The reality of the historic importance that they claim is debatable, but you will definitely enjoy this place. Do visit if you have little extra time during your amritsar trip.

Very beautiful and serene place to visit. The temple of Valmiki is built newly inside a sarovar. Then you can visit Labh Kush pathsala, and baniyan tree where Sita Mata used to live and at this tree Labh Kush roped Ram's ashwamedh horse.

It is a very relaxing temple dedicated to Valmiki which can be visited at any time. It is also said to be the birth place of Luv and Kush and there is a hut like structure built inside the temple which shows that Mata Sita stayed there.

A must visit religious and historical place in amritsar. 14 Kms from city in a serene place. Road connectivity is good and no traffic. Request to all people going there please don't write your name on walls of shrine and temple.

Beautiful experience visiting in the late evening. Valmiki temple, Luv Kush caught ShriRam's horse here. Also, Sita Mata's meditation place was worth visiting. The lake surrounding the temple was mesmerising.

Beautiful and peaceful place..... everything is take care of well... security makes sure that everyone follows the protocols set by temple.....also there is a place for kids to enjoy (charges around 50₹ which is affordable) so that parents and kids both can enjoy n spend time at this place....the place is crowned in weekends....

It's a religious place very special to Hindu community more than its a very peaceful clean but outside hawkers need to clean and hygiene please pay attention on it so most of tourist will attract this place

Absolute pious place. The history as shared by locals has so much importance to this blissful Marvel.

Maha Muni Valmiki resided here. Mata Sita gave birth to Luv & Kush and their education happened here.

The lake around this temple has a specific story where Lord Hanuman was requested Sita Mata to get her small pond to be dug overnight, as she is finding difficult to go to a far of pond to fetch water. Than Hanuman Dug this pond in few hours . He stamped his 2 feet and half. When he heard someone was milking goats to make butter, he thought it was already morning but it still mid night. As he stopped he did not continue digging ……. The pond is around 2o acres and it is awesome ti be around it.

There are spots where Sita mata has a specific well for her bathing…. Luv & Kush study place etc.

The belief is that people not having kids would be blessed to have one…. If they visit this place. The children would prosper if they visit this location.

It is lil away from main town Amritsar ……. Private transport would be lil expensive unless well negotiated….. people are friendly…….

Pious and unwinding …….

Valmiki Tirath Sthal was a surprise for me. I didn't know that the place is well constructed and has beautiful architecture. I enjoyed the visit. Must go place if traveling with the family.

This is a breathtaking temple with its beautifully lit Sarovar... supposed to be the birthplace of Luv & Kush .. a huge gold Valmiki idol with marble floor & sprawling outer space will definitely be an added tourist spot if only more famous. There is a huge Hanuman too . It’s after all only about 11 kms from the city & lots of taxis are available ...open till almost 9 pm .

A neat and spacious area. Worth the visit if you like to visit spots from Hindu epics ( in this case, the pathshala area and birth place area of Luv and Kush). The main temple has the statue of Valmiki since it is believed that he wrote the Srimad Ramayan from this place. It is a spot on the way to Attari- Wagah border from Amritsar.

Majorly overlooked by tourist visiting Amritsar, this place offers a good insight into Hindu culture and depictions of Ramayana. The temple premises are nothing short of majestic, and a lot of hard work has been put in to construct as well as maintain the beauty of the place. I would surely recommend one to take out 3-4 hours from their Amritsar travel itinerary and visit the site.

Beautiful temple and peaceful place. Situated outside in Amritsar. Around 16 km from Golden Temple.

It was so big and marvelous. I visited every temple and worshipped for the goodwill of my family. So much devotion I got to see from the people.

The temple is situated on the outskirts of Amritsar. This is place where wife of lord Rama, Mata Sita lived with her son luv and Kush. It has so much religious significance and brief history. The cleanliness in the temple premises is next to excellent. It has some wonderful scenic views. Great to visit on weekends as it's a gem to visit in Amritsar. If you're visiting Amritsar then it's a must go place.

It's a beautiful temple located in Amritsar. The structure is so divine & serene. It is historical important for India.
It is dedicated to Rishi Valmiki & Sita Mata. But there are very less visitors. I hope more people visit this spectacular holy place.
It's a must visit.

A well maintained beautiful place where one can find almost all the hindu idols one names.
It's distant from the golden temple campus of Amritsar, though if one loves travelling do give it a visit.
No entry fee.

Nice place for hindu mythological point of view when you visit amritsar for golden temple and attari border for parade do visit this place as this towards aatari border this place also known as ram teerath well maintained and scenic beauty , this place also has an gousala and parking fees you pay is used for maintaince for it
