The Laxminarayan Temple is in Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh India. It was built by Raja Sahil Dev Verman in the 10th century. This is the main shrine in the town which has six temples in a row. It is a great example of ancient Indian architecture and craftsmanship. All the work was done by men and no machines were at that time.

Known for fine classical forms, the temple has been built in shikhara (spire) style with wooden chhatris (cenotaphs) and a shell roof. Besides the idol of Lord Vishnu, who is the presiding deity, the temple houses a metallic image of Garuda, the lord's mount. It is a must visit in Chamba. You will be amazed to see it's beauty and architecture. During the mughal empire, it was attacked many time to be demolished but somehow it survived.
