Dargah Pir Ratan Nath Jee (Urdu: درگاہ پیر رتن ناتھ جی) is a Hindu temple located in Jhanda Bazar locality of Peshawar city, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and Maha Shivratri is the main festival.[1][2][3][4]

History

This is the only ongoing functional temple in daily use along with Kalibari Mandir. Court ordered the Evacuee Trust Property Board to open the Goraknath Mandir, Gor Khatri, which opens once a year on Diwali.[1][2][3][4]
