Jammu Tourism
The
City of Jammu is popularly known as the "City of Temeples". Innumerable
temples and shrines with glittering "Shikhars" soar into the sky,
like caretakers of the city, creating the ambience of a truly holy city.
Tucked away in the foothills of the Himalayas, with the picturesque river Tawi
flowing alongside, stands the land that Raja Jambu Lochan discovered one day
while he was hunting. Legend has it that he suddenly came upon a clearing where
he saw a sight that left him speechless.
