The Nagbal Temple is actually in the eastern corner of the Anantnag town, placed adjacent to a tank. There are long shady chinnar trees that stand sentinel round the tank. The presiding deity of the Nagbal temple is Lord Ananta Bhagwan, set up at the outlet of the spring. The temple was built by Maharaja Ranbir Singh, the 2nd Dogra ruler of Kashmir. There are also other smaller temples in the temple complex. Shivaji temple, the oldest temple, was built during the reign of Maharaja Partap Singh. Another attraction here is a Gurudwara. A sulphur spring, which is believed to possess spiritual powers is also located nearby. Nagbal can be accessed from Anantnag by any means of local transport.
