Temples

As the name suggests, this place has many temples, some even dating back to 18th century. The buildings and structures have become quite aged and worn out over the years, and its now time for our generation to help in maintaining and passing this rich heritage to the next generation.

First, lets take a look at the map with location of the temples -
