Mahadeva Temple
Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, IndiaAbout
Situated on the same platform, between the Kandariya and the Jagadambi temples, is a much smaller but ruined Siva temple, as is indicated by a figure of Siva carved centrally on the lintel of the sanctum-doorway. The sanctum has perished, but the portico is intact and shelters now a powerful figure of sardula. It is not unlikely that this modest temple built in such close proximity to the Kandariya on its left, may have originally been dedicated to Siva's consort as an integral part of the same temple-complex.
