Brahma used to worship Lord Shiva in this temple. During the battle of Mahabharata, temple used to get destroyed by war in the

Shree Lakshmi Narayan Mandir was erected in the 12th century, during Chola Dynasty, and restored in the 16th century. Featuring
South Indian architecture, the construction was lead by an artist from Rajasthan. An attractive idol of Lord Shiva is placed at the
entrance, followed by a series of steps, which take devotees to Lord Lakshmi Narayan. Disciples also worship the idols of Lord
Ganesha, Lord Garuda (vahana of Lord Lakshmi Narayan) and Lord Kuber here. The height of this temple is 124 feet and hence, can be seen from many parts of the city.
This holy temple is located next to Sthaneshwar Mahadev Temple. It's the most exclusive temple in the city as it's built around a
banyan tree, which belongs to pre-Mahabharata period. A big opening in the ceiling allows the branches of the trees to pass through
while a round concrete wall around the bottom prevents roots from expanding that is must to keep the temple structure intact.
