My visit to Baba Dhune Waleji Maharaj Temple complex (Rampur Sani, Nangal)

Baba Dhune Waleji Maharaj Temple
Inside Shiva Temple
I love to travel and therefore, often gets a chance to visit many places which I have not seen before. India is a country of Temples and we can find many temples around us. While some of the temples are very popular and everyone knows about them. However, still, there are many other temples which are not very popular but have good popularity in the local region.

The Temple Baba Dhune Waleji Maharaj at Rampur Sani, Nangal is one such temple. This temple is situated between two canals originating from the Nangal Dam and it is the place where the main Maharaj of the temple used to meditate and worship. Today, at this place, we can find a big temple complex with many small temples, Goshala and marriage hall.

This temple is situated away from the main road, and to reach this temple you need to cross the main Bhakra Canal and take the small road adjacent to the Bhakra canal. Many people who visit this temple also take bath in the adjoining canal where an iron net is built in the canal so that people don't flow away in the water. The temple is very peaceful and it is well cared. You will not find any dirt inside the temple.
