Resting on a wide-stone platform in a dense stand of
old deodar, the Hadimba Temple is Manali's oldest shrine. The Massive
triple-tiered wooden pagoda crowned by crimson pennants and a brass ball and
trident, dated from 1553, and is a replica of earlier ones that burned down in
successive forest fires. Its facade writhes with wonderful woodcarvings of
elephants, crocodiles and folk dieties. |
