Harshnath Temple, Hindu temple in Sikar district, India

The temple complex features intricately carved stone pillars with detailed sculptures of Goddess Parvati and her attendants displayed throughout the structure.

Built during the reign of Chahamana king Vigraharaja I in 973 CE by Shiv ascetic Bhavarakta, the temple underwent reconstruction in 1718 by Rao Shivsingh.

Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the temple's main Mandap contains sculptures depicting various aspects of Shaivism, with a prominent Nandi figure at the entrance.

Located 14 kilometers from Sikar city center at 900 meters elevation, the temple remains open to visitors from 8:00 AM and requires about one hour to explore.

The temple's west wall displays a carved image of Parvati standing in panchagnitap posture, surrounded by female attendants and musician figures.
