Built in the Kature style, the architecture of the Shiva temple is similar to that of Kedarnath Dham.

An excavation led to its discovery in 1945. After digging several feet underground, an ancient Shiva temple was found whose structure was similar to Kedarnath temple.

The temple was below the ground level and devotees had to go down to offer prayers in the temple. People say that some water from the Kheer Ganga would often drift onto the ‘shivling’ installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the temple and a path had been created for it. There are stone carvings outside the temple.

The ‘shivling’ of the sanctum sanctorum is shaped like the back of Nandi, just like in Kedarnath temple. PTI COR ALM ALM SKY SKY
