ANJANERI FORT || TO KNOW MORE CHECK THE DETAIL
Anjaneri, one of the forts in the mountain range of Nasik-Trimbakeshwa. Anjaneri is located 20 km away from Nasik by Trimbak Road.
In some of the Puranas it is relayed that Hanuman's mother, Anjana Devi, was the daughter of Maharishi Gautama and Ahalya. When she refused to defend her mother against the accusation of adultery, she was cursed by Ahalya that she too would suffer shame by giving birth to a Vanara child before she was married. Anjana Devi, it is said, then resolved to undertake strict penance in the hills near her father's hermitage. Standing on one leg, she became so absorbed in meditation that an anthill is supposed to have grown around her. Due to the intensity of her tapas, Indra's throne began to shake and the gods were disturbed by the strong energies that were released. Sage Narada was dispatched to seek Shiva's help in containing these energies who then incarnated as her son Hanuman
