Dedicated to the 'Goddess of Light', the Jwalamukhi temple is one of the most popular Hindu temples in Northern India. The temple located on a small spur on the Dharamshala-Shimla road at a distance of about 20-kms from the Jwalamukhi Road Railway Station attracts lakhs of pilgrims every year.
In this temple there is a copper pipe through which natural gas comes out. The priest of the temple lights this and the blue flame emanating is worshipped as the manifestation of Goddess. There is no idol inside the temple.
