★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dedicated to Shiva and built circa 950 A.D. during the Somavamshi dynasty, the west-facing Mukteshwar (also spelled Mukteswara, Mukeshvara, Mukteswar) Temple is the most exquisitely ornamented temple to be found in Bhubaneswar.
Built of red sandstone, it marks the culmination of all other previous temple developments and was constructed just prior to more fully evolved projects that followed in the 11th and 12th centuries.
Set within a pretty well-tended garden complex known as Siddharanya (forest of siddhas), the name Mukteshvara means “Lord of Freedom”.
The name suggests the temple potentially acted as the center of Tantric initiation, perhaps further confirmed by the numerous carvings on the exterior of thin skeletal ascetics in various meditation or teaching poses.
