Parsurameswara Temple, Hindu temple in Bhubaneswar, India

The Parsurameswara Temple consists of a square-towered sanctuary connected to a rectangular prayer hall with intricate carvings on its exterior walls.

Built around 650 CE during the Shailodbhava dynasty, this temple represents the earliest completely preserved religious structure in the city of Bhubaneswar.

The temple walls display detailed sculptures of Hindu deities, including Kartikeya, Ganesha, and the Saptamatrika group representing seven mother goddesses.

Located in the northern section of Bhubaneswar, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 5:00 AM to 6:00 PM without requiring an entrance fee.

The temple features a collection of one thousand miniature Shiva lingas carved into stone, situated in the northwestern corner of the compound.
