Jagatsukh, Manali

Jagatsukh Village, the former capital of Kullu, is one of the biggest villages of the region and is popular for its various religious centres. The place is primarily known for an old temple known as the Shiva Temple, which is constructed in shikhara style consisting of a flat-topped pyramid-like structure.

There is also a chalet-roofed temple that is dedicated to the Hindu deity Sandhya Devi. Apart from these temples, the village also has a Sharvali Devi Temple, and a small shrine of Gaurishankar. The main and common feature of these temples is the tri-ratha sanctum with a shikhara. It is said that these religious sites were built during the 8th century.
