Sasbahu Temple, Hindu temple in Gwalior Fort, India

The Sasbahu Temple features twin structures with intricate carvings on every surface, including detailed relief sculptures and ornamental floral designs throughout the walls.

King Mahipala of the Kachchhapaghāta dynasty constructed these temples in 1093, establishing them as centers of religious devotion within the fortified complex.

The temples contain numerous stone carvings depicting Hindu deities such as Brahma, Vishnu, and Saraswati, representing multiple aspects of religious worship.

The temple complex remains accessible through the main gates of Gwalior Fort, with photography permitted throughout the architectural site.

The name derives from 'sahastrabahu,' referring to Vishnu, rather than the common interpretation of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship.
