Shree Gadha Dhar Luxmi Narayan Temple

Shree Gadha Dhar Luxmi Narayan Temple

UTTER BEHNI, Samba, Mahur Garh, Jammu and Kashmir

Many people visit this temple but still very few know the glory of this place. The temple is build by Maharaja Gulab Singh ji as Maharaja had a dream of Raj-tilak in dream on this place. On waking up, he found a tilak on his forehead, later he got Rajtilak of Jammu and Kashmir in reality. So he constructed this temple to offer respect to lord Vishnu. The temple is situated on the first floor. The ground floor was once a Sanskrit university but unfortunately a flood in Devak river drowned it along with ground floor and now the temple seems to be as if on ground only. Ancient wells are there. Surrounding the main temple, are small temples of 24 Avataras. A must see place. Nearby are Shri Kashi Temple and Adh-vanda temple. All worth seeing
