History & significance A Shiva temple about 15 km from Mansehra, rebuilt in the 1830s by the Raja of Jammu around a lingam reported to be some two thousand years old. Sealed from 1948, it became accessible again in 1998 and has been partially restored by Pakistani Hindus, who gather here for Shivaratri.

Not yet sourced: how to reach it, its sthala katha and a source beyond Wikipedia.
Those are gaps in our citations, not in the record of the site. A field appears here only once we can cite it, so an absent one means the sourcing is still to do — most of these facts are well attested somewhere we have not read yet: a gazetteer, an inscription volume, the temple’s own office. We omit rather than guess.
Most useful next: how to reach it . If you have it in a published source, see how a fact reaches the atlas .
