TEMPLES
Sidh Baba Ka Mandir: Maharaja Bhupinder Singh had originally
intended this to be the site of his palace, and had even
started building it, but as is believed, a 'sidh', saintly
person appeared in the Maharaja's dream, and declared that
this was the place where he had meditated. Consequently,
Bhupinder Singh shifted his venue and built a temple on
the spot.
