A visit to the historically famous 'Agnigarh Hill'

in #travel7 years ago

Hola guys, it was a busy day full of enjoyment.
Well we decided to visit the famous "Agnigarh Hill" in Tezpur. With me were my friends Karan and Pushpak. I'm sharing some photographs with explanation of this historically famous place. Hope you will love on scrolling down.

Well as King Baan was never happy at this marriage so he decided to attack Aniruddha, who happened to be the Grandson of Lord Shri Krishna, also known as 'Hari'. And Baan was also a great devotee of Lord Shiva, also known as 'Har' or 'Hara'. So the battle was finally between Hari and Har. Read more about it in Wikipedia if you are interested. Here are few shots of the sculptures of the battle
