Manikeshwari Temple, Hindu temple in Bhawanipatna, India
The Manikeshwari Temple stands in the southern part of Bhawanipatna, featuring traditional Hindu architecture with detailed stone carvings and religious symbols throughout its structure.
The temple construction reached completion in 1947 under Brajamohan Deo's supervision, following the initial foundation work by Udit Narayan Deo.
