Naggar : Temples

Is baar aap religious ~ spiritual trip pe aaye ho! - I was told at the German Bakery at Naggar. 

Well, let us begin with the temples at Jagatsukh!

Shiva Mandir

This is what a report by ASI - Chandigarh Circle states on this : This Siva Temple, located on the left bank of the river Beas, is an architectural gem dateable to the 8th century. It consists of tiratha sanctum with a sikhara which is devoid of corner amalakas and a porch resting on 2 tall octagonal pillars. 

Gayatri Mata Mandir

Known for its 'unique folk style architecture', the temple today stands cheek by jowl with a school (and its play area!)

The pujari aunty insisted that I enter the temple - 2 welcome surprises here!

On to those within Naggar now

(Both of these are within a stone's throw from the Naggar Castle)

Gauri Shankar Mandir

Tripura Sundari Devi Mandir

Some temples strike you with the visual splendour on offer. This is one such. Another temple dedicated to the very Goddess - in Banaras - too is home to exquisite craftspersonship. 

A Hindi film was shot here some time ago after which the people purified the premises - we were were told!
