Abstract
Religion and geography appear to have little in common at rst glance. The majority of those who are interested in the study of religion are also generally less interested in the study of geography. Religious places have always played a signicant role in societies' social and cultural fabric. This paper explores the function of religious places in the village of Ladwi, focusing on their historical, cultural, and social signicance. Through examining the sacred spaces with an empirical approach, the paper explores how religious places contribute to the spiritual and social well-being of their respective communities. The central focus of this research paper is to understand how a religious place functions in the space, place and location. Hisar is known for its rich cultural history and there are various temples, Geographical study of religion in the concerned area has been neglected, which is why this study aims to investigate the development, spread, and impact of religion on people's lives from a geographical perspective. Geographical factors play a vital role in answering pertinent questions about religion. Places of worship also hold signicant importance as they are integral parts of the cultural landscape. The historical background of worship places is complex and multifaceted, and studying it from a geographical perspective can provide valuable insights. However, there has been a notable absence of such research in the concerned study area. Therefore, investigating the factors that contributed to the origin of worship places is an important goal of this study
