JAMMU – Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University in collaboration with Patnitop Development Authority and Archaeological Survey of India organized a heritage walk at the historic Krimchi Temple Complex, Udhampur. Held under the aegis of Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav, the event witnessed an enthusiastic gathering of students, historians, artists, administrators, and academicians. The Heritage Walk up to Krimchi Fort was flagged off by Padma Shri Prof Ravindra Kumar Sinha, VC, SMVDU, and Thakur Sher Singh, CEO, PDA, from the Krimchi Temples. During the guided tour followed by Heritage Baithak, the participants were made aware about the prominent historical, architectural and cultural aspects of the sites at Krimchi that are being maintained by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The group of ancient temples located in Krimchi, in Udhampur District of Jammu and Kashmir, are believed to have been built around 11th and 12th century AD, and popularly identified as Pandava Temples given their Mahabharat connection. These temples, designed on stone structures, with a stream flowing nearby, take one to the magnificence of bygone era.
