Dehradun, Uttarakhand · 30.3573°, 78.0167°
A cave shrine on the bank of the Tons at Dehradun, built over a natural shivalinga onto which water drips continuously from the rock above — the feature that gives the temple its name.
The cave is linked to Dronacharya: when his wife could not nurse their son Ashwatthama and the family could not afford milk, the boy prayed to Shiva, who fed him with milk dripping from the lingam.
