Sandipani Ashram is around 2 km from
Ujjain. It is the hermitage of Sandipani Muni, the tutor of
Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna and
Sudama received regular instruction in this ashram. Gomti Kund, a stepped water tank, is situated near the ashram. It was the source of water supply to the ashram in the olden days. The area near the ashram is known as Ankapata, where Krishna washed Sandipani Muni’s writing tablets. Near Gomti Kund, there is an image of
Nandi which belongs to the
Shunga period.
