Once Lord Shiva killed a cow by mistake. Nandi told Shiva to take bath in Ramkund of Nashik to remove his sin of Gohatya. Lord Shiva came here and took bath in Ramkund and get rid of his sin. After that Shiva did jap here where the temple is constructed. The surprising thing of this temple is we cannot find Nandi infront of Lord Shiva here as Nandi suggested Lord Shiva to take bath here.
Kalaram Temple, The Modakeshwar Ganesh Temple, Muktidham Temple, Naroshankara temple are the other attractions of Nashik City.
