Chandrabhaga is the sacred place of the confluence of the two main rivers of Lahul. In particular, in 1931 the expedition of the Urusvati Institute of Himalayan Studies discovered ancient burials there. There is the ancient monastery of Gondola (Ghandola), as well as the old fort of the Mongols. Later, archaeologists found there the head of Avalokiteshvara, which is now stored in the monastery of Guru Gantala. Near the confluence of the Chandra and Bhaga rivers – Chandrabhaga, in the town of Tandi, there is a shrine of Buddhists and Hindus – the temple of Triloknath. Under this name, Hindus worship Shiva, and Buddhists, Avalokiteshvara. "We cannot help but mention that under the name of Triloknath – the God of Three Worlds – in the upper Kulu, as well as in the principality of Chamba and Lahul, people worship Avalokiteshvara".

"...Here is Chandra-Bhaga, celebrated in Puranas a long time ago. Here is the country of Zahor, and The sacred books hidden from the persecutions of the wicked king Landarma... Caravans of sadhus and lamas moves on a pilgrimage to Triloknath, an ancient shrine. They go together from different directions. Someone carries a trident, someone, a bamboo cane, and and someone else has nothing, and not clothes, making a pilgrimage. They do not care about the snow at the Rothang Pass".

"And again we are talking about images on rocks, about unreadable inscriptions, about stone tombs and hidden sacred books. In addition to sites in the Kulu Valley, people mention another site near Triloknath, where, according to a legend, book were hidden during the persecution of the fierce Landarma".
