BARAHA
CHHETRA
Baraha Chhetra is one of the four greatest Hindu pilgrimages.
This is the spot where Barah, the boar incarnation of Lord Bishnu,
protector of the universe, fought with the demon Hiranakshya and
killed him. Apart from the main shrine dedicated to Barah, there
are many other temples that bear the image of Bishnu's boar incarnation.
