Located around 15 km from the heart of Dehradun, Laxman Sidh temple is situated on the Dehradun-Haridwar Bypass. It is one of the four revered Siddh Peeth of Dehradun, dedicated to the disciples of Sage Dattatreya. The other three Siddh Peeth are Mandu Siddh, Kalu Siddh, and Manak Siddh, located in different directions of Dehradun. As a religious place, this temple is surrounded with different folktales.

According to one, Laxman performs a penance here to absolve himself from the sin of Brahma killing, hence the temple named after him. Whereas, another legend says that Saint Laxman indulged in the spiritual practices and was laid to rest. Temple is often visited by the multitude of devotees from far and wide to offer their prayers and seek blessings.

People believe that visiting all four Siddh Peeths in a single day while fasting may fulfill their wishes. Nestled amidst dense forest, the temple is home to many monkeys, a common thing of all four Sidh Peeths. Visitors need to be cautious and hold their belongings tightly.
