India is rich in diversity and many places are quite famous and attractions spot for tourists worldwide. I would like to share one such place that is worth mentioning but many people are not aware of this place. It is located in Kangra village in Himachal Pradesh. It is also called as Patutiladi. There are cluster of temples which are there. The unique and interesting thing is most of the time they are submerged in the water. They are only accessible to the public for about 4 months only in a year. Many people are not aware about this place because as I have mentioned that most of the time of the year the temple is not open and is submerged in the Pong Dam. It is usually visible to the public when the water level is recede. There are many different stories about it. Some people say that it was built by a local king who ruled that region. While some people believe that it was built by the Pandavas. They built a staircase that is sent to heaven. But Indra God intervened the process. There is still a staircase but that is not available for general public and it is usually blocked by stones. There is a main temple devoted to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. When I visited there I was really ecstatic to know about its story and origin. It was a trip to remember for a lifetime.
