Mrikula Devi Temple, Udaipur.
The Lahaul itinerary normally runs Atal Tunnel - Sissu - Keylong - back. The Pattan Valley road continues west from Tandi for another 50 km into a much greener Chamba-side district that very few Lahaul-Spiti circuits include.WHY NOBODY KNOWS
An 11th-12th century wooden Kali temple, rebuilt in 1569 around an older 8th-century shrine, with floor-to-ceiling deodar carvings depicting Mahabharata, Ramayana, and Samudra Manthan scenes - a Kashmiri-Buddhist hybrid art tradition you do not see anywhere else in the western Himalaya. The silver Mahishasuramardini idol is rare for the period. Sits in Udaipur bazaar, so easy to combine with the Trilokinath drive 12 km uphill.
