Proceed with your guide to the nearby Jagdish Temple, and witness the beauty of Indo-Aryan architectural style.

In the afternoon, participate in the Aarti ceremony in which the devotees sing ancient hymns for the God. Let your guide narrate for you the interesting stories of Hindu mythology, and provide you with more details about Hinduism. Afterwards, you'll visit Sahelion Ki Bari Garden.
From there, walk to the legendary Bhagore Ki Haveli, graciously built beside Lake Pichola and carefully restored through the rise and fall of various empires.
