Malot Temple

PunjabTempleProtected
The temple is built in four squares in Kashmir style with a recessed bay in each face and flanked by flouted columns capped by a trefoil arch. The roof which had fallen years ago, was in all probability, built of stone in pyramidal shape and comprised of two or more stages. It was the product of the period of king Lalita Ditya of Kashmir, who ruled over north Punjab including salt range.
