Cave Temple of Bumazuv, Lidder Valley, Anantnag, Jammu & Kashmir
Lying in the innermost portion of Bumazuv, the cave temple is a holy shrine.

The Cave temple lies in the Bumazuv Caves, an artificial group of caves holding considerable importance, which have been built in a special architectural manner, chiselled out from a large mass of limestone cliff. The Cave temple although is a small one carved out from these stones; the structural work of the temple resembles the other temples of Kashmir. The temple traverses an area of 9 feet 5 inches square externally. The base of the temple is located at a height of 4 feet 6 inches. The slight protrusion of the porch of the temple is the main drawing card for the tourists. The two rectangular recesses in the corner columns heighten the beauty of the temple. Other attractions in the neighbourhood are the Ziarat of Baba Bamdin Sahib. The Cave Temple of Bumazuv Caves can be approached from Mattan which is about 1 mile away from the said location. One can also reach the spot by road from Anantnag by the Pahalgam Road. The nearest railhead is Jammu.
