Nag Temple Himachal Pradesh

This fascinating complex in Sangla's old, lower town combines half a dozen stone and carved-wood sub-temples from very varying eras, all topped with archetypal tip-tilted roofs finished with heavy slates. Finding the place through Sangla's steeply descending footpaths offers glimpses of dozens more historic wooden structures. Many are sadly neglected but as yet still standing, amid newer homes.
