The name 'Bathu Ki Larhi' literally means 'a string of Bathu stone-structures.' There are eight unique tall temples which remain dipped in water for eight months and are visible to human eye only from March to June. The temple complex is visited by devotees from various parts of the country during these four months and other times it remains as a tourist destination. Even though the temples are under water most of the year, there are no changes in its natural color, beauty and luster.

The temple complex is enclosed within two walls, which were meant to protect it from the foreign invaders. There are stone images of Goddess Kali and Lord Ganesh on both sides of its entrance. The complex also houses broken idols of Lord Vishnu and Sheshnag. The antique artistic ladders, with images of Hindu gods, inside the temple domes are excellent examples of Hindu architecture.

A variety of unique colorful birds migrating from various continents of the world make it a paradise for bird watchers.

The place can be approached via Gaggal Airport and Kangra Railway Station.
