New Delhi: There are many Hindu temples in Pakistan even today. Lord Shiva's Katasaraj Temple is the biggest Hindu temple of Pakistan. Hindus have a lot of faith in this shrine.






It is located 270 km from Lahore in Chakwal district. The name ‘Katas' is driven from the Sanskrit word ‘Katashel' meaning ‘Raining Eyes'.

The temple complex was not abandoned by Hindus when they migrated to India's Punjab in 1947.

It has always been the site of holy pilgrimage for people of various faiths.
