Hariraya Temple, Chamba HP
|
|
|
Dedicated to the lord Vishnu, Shri Hariraya temple is located adjacent to the Central Park. Built in stone, this temple also exhibits the Shikhara style architecture. The deity’s bronze image with the three face is made out from eight different materials that presents a fine implementation. This 11th century temple is the abode of the other deities such as lord Shiva, Surya and Aruna. The main deity is artistically ornamented with bracelets, finger-rings, armlets, a beaded garland, mukut, necklaces, and kundals.
Finely carved Shikharas and the superb sculpture of Vishnu straddling six horses have got an enchanting appeal. The saffron coloured shrine is supposed to have great antique value. It is the only structure that has been coated with saffron colour and stands out because of its prominent colour. The temple enshrines a marvelous bronze image of Lord Vishnu in the form of Chaturmurti.
