According to the ancient Hindu epic Mahabharata, the Pandavas built this sacred temple during their exile after completing the nearby lake.

One of the major highlights of the Yulla Kanda Trek is the grand Janmashtami celebration, organized by the Bushahr royal family. During this sacred event, devotees participate in the traditional ritual of throwing a Kinnauri cap into the holy lake. It is believed that if the cap floats across the lake without sinking, the person will be blessed with peace, happiness, and prosperity for the coming year.
Perfect for adventure enthusiasts, spiritual seekers, photographers, and nature lovers, the 3 Days / 2 Nights Yulla Kanda Trek offers scenic drives, traditional village experiences, moderate trekking trails, camping under the stars, and a chance to witness the untouched beauty of the Himalayas.
