Fodor's Expert Review Mahadeva Temple

Western Group of Temples Ruins

Sharing the platform with the Kandariya Mahadev and the Devi Jagdamba, this small temple is mostly in ruins. Now dedicated to Shiva, it may originally have been a subsidiary temple to the Kandariya, probably dedicated to Shiva's consort. In the portico stands a remarkable statue of a man caressing a mythical horned lion.
