Brahma Temple, Hindu temple in Khajuraho, India.
The Brahma Temple features granite construction with a square garbhagriha supported by twelve pilasters and topped by a sandstone shikhara.
Built during the Chandela dynasty in the early 10th century, this temple contains a four-faced lingam that locals mistakenly identified as Brahma.
The temple doorway displays carvings of the trimurti on the lintel and representations of sacred rivers Ganga and Yamuna at its base.
The temple stands near Khajuraho Sagar lake and remains accessible through guided tours that explain its architectural and religious significance.
Unlike other Khajuraho temples constructed with grainstone, this structure incorporates granite as its primary building material.
