Location
This temple stands at the place, where Rama is said to have performed the Ashvamedha Yagya. About 300 years ago, the Raja of Kullu built a new temple here, which was improved by Ahilyabai Holkar of Indore, during 1784. At the same time, the adjoining ghats were also built. The initial idols in black sandstone were recovered from Saryu and placed in the new temple, famous as Kaleram-ka-Mandir.
The temple is said to be at the site where Lord Rama performed Ashmedha Yagna. Ashwamedha Yagna was a ritual done, where by horses were left to roam in the country. The places where horses would go, would come under the reign of the Yagna performer. Since the main temple has been closed, this and other Rama temples have gained enormous popularity.
