Overview

Bhagsunath Temple is a magical destination for spirituality and nature lovers alike, nestled in the serene hills of Himachal Pradesh. It is an ancient temple dedicated to Lord Shiva located in Dharamshala, a breathtakingly beautiful town. The richness of its history and its cultural significance make it the most sought-after destination for those looking at the Himachal Pradesh Tour Packages or Dharamshala Tour Packages.


Bhagsunath Temple is pretty old and full of folk tales. The temple is more than 500 years old. The main deity worshipped by devotees from all over India and abroad is Lord Shiva. It is said that a local king Bhagsu lost the battle against the serpent king, and he was saved later on due to mercy from Lord Shiva, because of which reason this temple has gained its name. The temple itself symbolises healing and divine benevolence.


Bhagsunath Temple Bhagsunath is also known for the excellent architecture of the building. The area is full of a complex of stone carvings, ornate designs, and peaceful air. While most of the visitors come here just to get the blessings bestowed by the god, more often than not, they come just to be amidst the atmosphere that this temple offers in the context of the beautiful mountains surrounding the area.


The Bhagsunath location is full of beautiful charm. It is 3 kilometres away from the bustling town of Dharamshala and therefore becomes a quiet abode far from the chaos of everyday life. It can be approached by a short trek from the town; during the journey, one gets the beauty of dense forests and falling streams that cascade down various streams.
