About Jageshwar Dham
A cluster of well over a hundred small stone temples from the seventh to the thirteenth centuries, set in a deodar valley about 35 km from Almora. The main temples include Mahamrityunjaya and Jageshwar, and the site is one of the places claimed as the Nageshwar Jyotirlinga. It is calm and cool, and the Shravan fair in July and August brings a big crowd.
