400 pax temple of Krishna and Mira bai in Nurpur on way from Dharamshala to Pathankot inside the Nurpur fort which is also known as Raja ka bagh

It is the biggest shrine representing the Nurpur kingdom. The temple inside the fort called Brij Raj Swami was built in the 16th century and is known to be one of the only places where both the idols of Lord Krishna and Meera Bai are worshiped. Ancient rulers of Nurpur patronised the pahari painting style which has survived as frescoes in Diwan-i-Aam dates back to 1610 and Raja Mandhata's name is inscribed as restorer on the wall. It also houses statue of Krishan-Mira which is believed to be brought from Fort Chittorgarh when Raja Vasudev laid a siege to capture Rana of Mewar Amar Singh I in 1613. In 1886 ASI discovered the ruins and in 1904 excavated the original temple where initially statues of Krishan-Mira were installed, built in the style of famous temples of Vrindavan and Mathura as the architecture was not found in Punjab hills. The shrine was safely buried in the pond in 1618 when the Fort was besieged and there were no chances of survival by Raja Suraj Mal of Nurpur. The shrine came into the dreams of Raja Mandhata (1700-1735) who drained the pond and restored shrine's former glory.
