Billeshwar Temple, Nalbari, India

The Billeshwar temple is situated at Belsor village. The temple is dedicated to lord Krishna. The history of the temple dates back to 500 years. Legends say that once there was a priest who had a cow. The cow, however, refused to give milk. The priest found that the cow gave milk on a bush of virina, a kind of grass. The king of the region came to know about the incident.

A temple was built which was first called Birreswar or God or Virina, then Billeswar and now Belsor. Nowadays Belsor is a developed village  with easy accessibility to Nalbari, the district headquarter.Throughout ages this temple has attracted many devotees and received royal patronage, including the Ahom King, Lakshmi Singha, who rebuilt the temple after devastating natural calamity.
