Mohangiri, Kalahandi

Mohangiri is a quaint village in Kalahandi, which comes under the places of interest for tourists of the Shiva temple. A stream named Kali Ganga flows close to the village. On the bank of this stream lie the ruins of the ancient Shiva temple with eleven pillars of Jagmohan Hall. Though the temple has been reconstructed, the old remnants which date back to 600 AD can still be found inside the temple.

Many rock-cut sculptures have been carved out on the body of the temple along with the many stone blocks of this ancient collapsed temple making the temple worthy of a visit. A Shivalinga has been unearthed along with the temple which is now placed inside a hut for worshipping. The temple is a unique combination of the present period and the olden times.
