RAGHUNATH
TEMPLE: In the 17th century,
raja Jagat Singh of Kullu committed a great wrong. To
atone for the sin, he sent a senior courtier to Ayodhya
for a statue of Lord Ragunath - Lord Rama. This temple
was built by Raja Jagat Singh to house the image and even
today is greatly revered. BIJLI MAHAVED TEMPLE
(14 km): At 2460m, this is set on a spur that offers some
spectacular views. The temple is famous for its high staff
that periodically drawns lighting which shatters the Shivlinga
and scorches the building. Using only butter as adhesive,
the linga is then carefully pieced together by the temple
pundit. BASHESHWAR MAHADEV TEMPLE BAJURA (15 KM):
One of the most charming temple in the kullu, this is
renowned for its intricate stone carvings.
