The Dharmarajeshwara temple is a rock-cut temple site 100kms from Mandsaur in Madhya Pradesh, India.[1] The complex features well-preserved Hindu shrine and bears some resemblance to the rock-cut heritage sites at Ellora, Maharashtra.
The temple complex dates to the 8th century and initially featured a shrine dedicated to Vishnu but was later remodelled as a Shiva temple. Consequently, the sanctum sanctorum features both an icon of Harihara as well as a Shivalinga. The Mahashivaratri is the primary festival celebrated at Dharmarajeshwara.[1]
