Shankaracharya Temple - The sacred temple of Shankaracharya occupies the top of the hills known as Takht-I-Sulaiman in the southeast of Srinagar. The site dates back to 250BC. The saint Shankaracharya stayed at this place when he visited Kashmir ten centuries ago to revive Sanatan Dharma. Before this date, the temple was known as Gopadri, as an earlier edifice on the same site was built by king Lalitaditya in the 6th century AD. In fact, the road below the hill, with residences of high- ranking State Government officials, is still known as Gupkar road. Built on a high octagonal plinth and approached by a flight of steps with sidewalls that once bore inscriptions, the main surviving shrine consists of a circular cell. It overlooks the Valley and can be approached by a motorable road. A modern ceiling covers the inner sanctum and an inscription in Persian traces its origin to the reign of emperor Shah Jehan. The original ceiling was dome- shaped and the brick roof, it appears, is not more than a century old.
