A Sacred Legacy Shattered by Nature — Let’s Restore It Together
🌄 The Temple That Once Held a Village’s Faith
High in the hills of Himachal Pradesh, nestled in the quiet beauty of Shimla, stood a 200-year-old ancient temple — a place where generations prayed, celebrated, and sought divine protection.
But two years ago, a devastating landslide turned this sacred site into ruins. Stones scattered. Walls collapsed. And the hearts of the villagers were left broken.
🙏 The Spirit Remains — But the Structure Needs Us
Despite their pain, the villagers tried to rebuild. With whatever little they had, they gathered bricks, offered prayers, and began to reconstruct.
But their limited resources could not match the scale of destruction. The temple remains in a fragile, incomplete state, and the reconstruction has come to a halt.
Now, they need your help.
