Ujjanak, Kashipur, Udham Singh Nagar district, Uttarakhand · 28.9764°, 79.3936°
A Shiva temple at Ujjanak near Kashipur named for the sheer girth of its lingam, which cannot be encircled by two hands. The complex also holds shrines of Bhairav Nath, the Shiv Ganga Kund and Maa Jagdamba Bhagwati Balsundari, and holds fairs at Maha Shivaratri, Chaitra and Shravan.
Local tradition holds that Dronacharya set Bhima to rebuilding the shrine, after which it came to be called Bheem Shankar.
