Kakanmath temple, Sihoniya, Hindu temple in Sihoniya, India
The Kakanmath temple features a central shrine with a 30-meter tower, surrounded by four subsidiary temples built without mortar or binding materials.
The temple was constructed between 1015 and 1035 CE by King Kirttiraja of the Kachchhapaghata dynasty as a dedication to Lord Shiva.
