How To Reach Bahulara Ancient Temple

Bankura, West Bengal, India
The Siddheswara Mahadeva Temple at Bahulara is an architectural masterpiece and one of the most important archaeological monuments in West Bengal. Dedicated to Lord Shiva (Siddheswara Mahadeva), the temple is a stellar example of the Rekha Deul style (similar to the Orissan/Kalinga style) that flour ished in the region before the rise of the ubiquitous Malla terracotta temples in Bishnupur. The temple is often dated to the 10th century CE or earlier, placing it firmly in the ancient period of Bengal's temple history. It is built entirely of laterite stone and stands as a solitary, magnificent, towering structure, perfectly showcasing the curvilinear Shikhara (tower) that characterizes this style. Its imposing height (about 60 feet / 18 meters) and excellent state of preservation make it a crucial point of study for anyone interested in the architectural transition of the region. The temple is protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) and remains an active place of worship.
