HINDOO TEMPLES AT AGOUREE, ON THE RIVER SOANE, BAHAR.
Agouree is pleasantly situated on the river Soane, surrounded with hills well covered with wood. In this place are many Hindoo temples, and also a small fort, which make a very picturesque appearance from the river.
Agouree is a place of worship of the greatest antiquity, which is obvious from the fragments of sculptured idols frequently to be met with there. The village at present is not very considerable.
The large tree in this view is the Banyan or Buhr.
Agouree is about fifty miles south from Chunar Gur.
