There are a lot of Hindu Temples in Punjab, Pakistan which were left after the migration of 1947. Mostly are not in use now. Some of the famous Temples are:
Jagannath Temple, Sialkot
Katasraj temple, Chakwal
Katasraj Mandir is a Hindu mandir or temple complex situated in Katas village near Choa Saidanshah in the Chakwal district of Punjab in Pakistan. Dedicated to Shiva, the temple has existed since the days of Mahābhārata and the Pandava brothers spent a substantial part of their exile at the site. The Pakistan Government is considering nominating the temple complex for World Heritage Site status. In 2007, it also proposed to restore the temple complex. In 2012, the temple pond is drying up due to heavy use of ground water for industrial purposes.
Prahladpuri Temple, Multan
Prahladpuri Temple is an ancient Hindu temple located in Multan, Pakistan. It is named after Prahlada and dedicated to Lord Narasimha. The temple is at present in ruins.
Hindu Temple at Tilla Gogian
For thousand of years it was a place of sun worship for the Hindus because the sun can be seen here earlier and sets here later due to its height. It became a place of worship for Hindus. Tilla Jogian in Punjabi means the Hill of Saints.
