Preah Vihear

Preah Vihear Temple: The Soul of Khmer
The Preah Vihear Temple is located slightly east of the midsection of the Dangrek Mountains. It is perched on the edge of a giant cliff, about 625m above sea level in the northern part of the Preah Vihear Province, close to the Thai border.
In the 9th century, King Yasovarman I (889 - 900 AD) began work on the original Preah Vihear Temple. It was then a small sanctuary dedicated to Siva as Sikharesvara, "Lord of Summit." Spiritual development,
increasing political power, and economic growth, which were factors that inspired the Khmer Kings, were reflected in the architectural style of the temple. It took more than 300 years to complete the various structures that merged into a homogeneous recreation of the Hindu Universe as a magical home of the gods. This naturally changed the original small sanctuary into one of the greatest Khmer temples of all times. This ranking was achieved as a result of the finest carvings that depicted the highest standards of unique Khmer architecture. It can be reached by road from Thailand.

Katas Raj Temples, Chakwal, near Lahore, Punjab

 




 
Katas Raj Temple is situated in Chakwal district of Punjab in Pakistan. Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple has existed before the days of Mahabharata and the Pandava brothers spent a substantial part of their exile here.

It is said that the five Pandava brothers, heroes of the Historical epic Mahabharata, stayed here four out of the 14 years that they spent in exile.

Its origin involves the death of Shiva's wife Satti. When she died, Shiva cried so much and for so long, that his tears created two holy ponds - one at Pushkar in Ajmer, India and the other at the Katas Raj Temple.

An important Shakti Peeth of Goddess Sati, Hinglaj Mandir or Nani Mandir is situated in Hingol National Park in Baluchistan province of Pakistan.

It came into existence when Lord Vishnu cut up Sati's dead body into 52 pieces so that Lord Shiva would calm down and stop his Tandava. These pieces got scattered all over the Indian subcontinent whilst Sati's head fell at Hingula or Hinglaj.

According to ancient scriptures, Lord Rama had also meditated at Hinglaj to atone for his sin of 'Brahmhatya' - killing of Ravana who was a Brahmin and a great devotee of Lord Shiva and Goddess Durga.
