The beautiful town of Mukteshwar was notoriously famous for being a tigers' habitat and has been mentioned in Jim Corbett's famous book, 'The Man-eaters of Kumaon'. Once freed of the carnivores, the town slowly grew into a serene and calm tourist destination with hilly terrains, fruit orchards, coniferous forests, snow-peak and enchanting views of its panoramic surroundings. It houses the well-known Mukteswara Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva. Worshippers visit the town in the quest for salvation. Mukteshwar is a wonder to the senses and is studded with houses adorned with red roofs and window frames that still hold British charm.
