The architecture of the Krimchi temples–: The temples are majestic and extremely beautiful. Temple was ruined then also it will catch your eye. The architecture of the temples in the complex display distinct influences of Doric style carved Column and Hellenic style arch.

5/5 Temple complex comes under ASI, not sure if its the state responsibility or centre to maintain it but it has been neglected. Jama Masjid in Srinagar which is just 600 yrs old in are given so much importance whereas this place which dates back to Mahabharat Era is in ruins.
