Chani Parft Temple, Rajauri, Jammu & Kashmir India

About 10 kms. from Sunderbani is located the majestic two storeyed Raghunath temple at an isolated place near village Chani Prat, which is believed to have been constructed during the reign of Maharaja Gulab Singh, through the efforts of a Sadhu who had casually visited the place as a matter of routine wandering.
He liked the place very much and wanted to stay there for meditation. After spending some time, the idea of constructing a temple struck his mind. The construction was started on the pattern of the double storey Varansi temple, the map of which was brought by the Sadhu alongwith him. The structure and design of the temple is unique because there is no temple of such structure in this region. It contains the images of Lord Rama, Goddess Sita, Lakshman and Hanuman. Miniature paintings on the walls depict various episodes of Mahabarata and Ramayana epics. A grand yagya is arranged at the temple on 6th and 7th of June every year.
