This Temple of Lord Shiva is located at a distance of about 15
Kms from Katra on way to Salal Dam. Here, a huge spring emerges
from the rocks in a thick grove of trees and forms a number of small
cascading waterfalls before ultimately flowing into the Holy rivulet
that merges with the Chenab River.
There is a naturally formed Shivling on which droplets of water fall at a constant pace all the year round. A big fair is held here during Shivratri. For the facility of the yatris visiting the place, the Shrine Board has carried out some developments including the construction of a Dharamshala.
Dera Baba Banda:
Situated 75 Kms away from Jammu, it's a major Hindu-Sikh pilgrimage
centre. Baba Banda Bairaagi was Guru Gobind Singh's favourite 'Saint-Soldier',
who had the Gurudwara constructed on the banks of river Chenab,
where he spent his last days. |
