Hadimba Temple,
Manali
Manali has many attractions but the chief
centre of interest, historically and archeologically, is undoubtedly
the DHOONGRI TEMPLE dedicated to goddess Hadimba, the Bhim of
Mahabharat fame. It has four-tiered Pagoda shaped roof and the doorway
is carved with legendary figures and symbols. This temple located
amidst wooden forest of deodar is about 2.5 kms. from the tourist
office. It is a pleasant experience to stroll in the temple complex
which was built in 1533 A.D. A large festival is held here in May.
