Situated at about one km uphill to the south of
Berinag is the famous Nagmandir dedicated to
Lord Vishnu and the Lord of the Serpents. According to a legend, Kalianag - after being conquered by
Lord Krishna - fled from
Yamuna to the
Himalayas and hid somewhere in this region. It is believed that this temple was built in the 14th century by the Pants from
Maharashtra.
