Work Description:
Published in Himalayan Towers - Temples and Palaces of Himachal Pradesh, also part of ACSAA Slide Set 93. Northern style pillow-topped sikihara. Visvesvara Mahadeva temple at Bajaura, dating from the 8th century, is the first major monument encountered as one travels toward Kulu from Mandi. Measuring 13 feet square, it is classic in composition and function as it honors Siva in the form of a linga inside the garbha grha, with three subsidiary shrines to the other cardinal directions. The inner room measures 8 feet six inches by 7 feet 2 inches. It is located at the foot of Kulu Valley near the confluence of the Beas and Parbatti rivers.
