Lalguan Mahadeva temple, Hindu temple in Khajuraho, India
The Lalguan Mahadeva temple features granite construction with a pyramid-shaped roof and minimal decorative elements on its entrance doorway.
Built around 900 CE on the bank of Lalguan Sagar lake, this structure represents the second oldest surviving temple in the Khajuraho monument complex.
The temple stands as a testament to early Hindu architectural practices, constructed during a period when builders transitioned from granite to sandstone materials.
The temple ruins remain accessible through the Khajuraho monument complex, with its location marked at coordinates 24.850806 latitude and 79.911267 longitude.
Despite its collapsed sanctum tower and missing entrance porch, the temple maintains its status as both a National Monument and UNESCO World Heritage site.
