Shri Chamunda Nandikeshwar Dham is a Hindu pilgrimage temple about 15 km from Dharamshala, in village Padar (Dadh) on the banks of the Baner River, along the Dharamshala-Palampur road. The shrine is dedicated to Goddess Chamunda and to Shiva as Nandikeshwar. According to the Kangra district administration, the present temple was raised some centuries ago after the older hilltop shrine, now known as Aadi Himani Chamunda, was difficult to reach. The complex includes the main Chamunda shrine, a shrine to Nandikeshwar Mahadev, and a sacred kund. The temple is especially busy during Navratri.
