TEMPLE VIEW , PRASHAR LAKE .
THE TEMPLE was built in the thirteenth century and legend has it was built by a baby from a single tree. Until now no one has determined the depth of PRASHAR LAKE .[citation needed] It is said that a diver is not able to determine its DEPTH .IT IS believed that SAGE PRASHAR MEDITATED on the BANKS of this LAKE , hence it is named PRASHAR LAKE . BHIMA , one of the PANDAVA brothers, had created the lake, the story says. After the KURKSHETRA / MAHABHARAT WAR , the PANDAVS were returning with Lord KAMRUNAG . When they reached this place, KAMRUNAG loved the tranquil surroundings and decided to live here forever. So, BHEEM (the strongest of the lot) rammed his elbow on one of the mountains and created a big dent in the land. This dent became PRASHAR LAKE . PRASHAR LAKE IS APPROXIMATELY 49 KM (30 MI ) BY ROAD FROM THE TOWN OF MANDI . THE MAXIMUM DEPTH OF THE LAKE REMAINS UNKNOWN .
