Kal Bhairab Temple, Hindu temple in Brahmanbaria District, Bangladesh.
The temple contains a towering stone Shivalinga statue measuring 24 feet in height, accompanied by statues of Goddess Kali and Goddess Saraswati.
The temple dates to the 19th century when sculptor Durgacharan Acharjee created the original statue from soil near the Titas river bank.
Daily prayers and annual ceremonies at the temple attract Shaivite pilgrims from across Bangladesh who gather to worship Lord Shiva.
Visitors can reach the temple by taking a bus or train to Brahmanbaria district, followed by a short rickshaw ride to the Medda location.
The temple houses what was once considered the largest Shivalinga statue in the world, standing at 28 feet before its reconstruction.
