Wangath temple complex is a group of
Hindu temple monuments in Wangath, close to
Naranag,
Jammu and Kashmir, India. The current structure was built by
Lalitaditya Muktapida of the Karkota dynasty in the 8th century CE but are now ruins. The temple is constructed out of local grey granite and consists of two complexes, dedicated respectively to Shiva Jyeshthesa and Shiva Bhuteshwara, with a central pavilion in between. The temple marks the starting point of pilgrimages to the
Gangabal Lake, a high-altitude alpine lake in the Himalayas considered by
Kashmiri Hindus to be an abode of Shiva. This photograph shows the main temple of the site's western complex.
