Jwalamukhi Temple
On the Dharmasala-Shimla road to Chandigarh I made a brief stop to visit the Hindu Jwalamukhi Temple, where the walk up to the temple was lined with many shops and food vendors.

Back on the road toward Chandigarh. It was the end of the 9-day holiday Dussehra Hindu which celebrates the god Rama's victory over the Ravana- the triumph of good over evil. People were dancing in the streets wearing colorful costumes.
