Naina Devi Temple

The Naina Devi temple is located atop a hill, with a fantastic view of the Punjab plains on one side and the Gobind Sagar lake on the other. This is the spot where Sati's eyes - nain - are believed to have fallen. Some devotees cover the last few miles of the climb up crawling, this method is called 'sashtang dandvata'. The puja is performed by thirty priests. The temple is also frequented by Sikhs. Guru Gobind Singh is believed to have spent some days here.
