Swami Vivekananda temple

The temple was built on the place where  his mortal remains were cremated during the year 1902. Besides the temple stands the bilva tree under which Swamiji used to sit, and as per his wish, his body was cremated at this place. 

We did meditation here and had a great spiritual feel.
