पठानकोट से 22 किमी दूर गांव डूंग के पास रावी के तट पर द्वापरयुग का शिवलिंग स्थापित है। कहते हैं कि पांडव अज्ञातवास में यहां गुफा बनाकर रूके थे। उसी दौरान उन्होंने इस शिवलिंग की स्थापना की थी। यहां पत्थर को तराश कर बनाई गईं पांच गुफाओं में एक ढह गई है।

The monolith of Nandi by Kakatiyas holds a superior quality in craftsmanship. The Nandi exhibits a considerable degree of masculine prowess. To give a life like finish to Nandi, the sculptors didn’t miss out showing veins of the Nandi present under the skinof the stately bull.

The sculptural & form modification displayed in Rudreshwara Temple is a masterpiece of creativity. Bracket figures are the highlight of the sculptures of temple. Two types of figures carved on the bracket figures, one is the mythical Vyalas & others are the Madanikas of Palampet.
