Jamagbagh Temple Chambi Sunder nagar

This temple is situated on the Ghangal stream on the Purana-nagar-Chambi road about two miles from Purana-nagar. It is named after a Jangam (wrongly called Jamag). The Jangam was a disciple of Shiva and a Guru of the Rani of Suket, One day when the Jangam returned from the forest, he was feeling very thirsty but he could not get water near at hand. He scratched the earth with his hand and water flushed out.

The Rani built a tank there and the Jangam placed a pindi of Siva near the tank. Afterwards, a temple was built over this pindi. There is a beautiful garden around the temple which is said to have been built in the 16th century during Raja Kartar Sen’s time.
