Bhavaniswar Mandir, Hindu temple in Baranagar, India

The Bhavaniswar Mandir rises 18 meters high with an inverted lotus dome and features a circular corridor surrounding the inner sanctum.

The temple was built in 1755 by Tarasundari, daughter of Rani Bhabani, who managed the Natore zamindari after becoming a widow at age 32.

The temple displays detailed human figures on its outer facade while the inner sanctum contains intricate floral patterns representing traditional Indian artistry.
