Snow Shivalingam major tourist attraction
Kullu, February 16
A huge snow Shivalingam has become the centre of attraction among tourists at Anjani Mahadev near Solang nullah in the Manali subdivision of the district. Tourists are flocking to see the natural Shivalingam at an altitude of 11,500 ft.
The Shivalingam is formed from frozen waterfall and its size increases during winters till the last week of February. People generally visit the holy spot after April, but this year the area witnessed heavy tourist influx.
It is believed that during the Treta Yuga, Goddess Anjani did penance to attain a son and Lord Shiva appeared. Since then, there has been a natural snow Shivalingam here. — OC
