My experience of visiting Purmandal temple:
Being a passionate traveler and resident of Jammu city. I like to explore religious places so this time I am sharing my experience of visiting at Purmandal temple. Though I have visited the purmandal temple many times but this time I went to Purmandal temple on the eve of Maha Shivratri festival with my friends which is an ideal time to visit the temple.
We started driving at 6:30 am from Jammu city and by 7:15 am we reach at Purmandal temple. We seek blessings from Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. The surroundings and morning view of this temple is just amazing.

To reach at temple you need to walk from car parking by passing the Devika river to reach at temple complex. By 8 am we started our drive back to Jammu city.
