The 11th-century Bhojeshwar Temple near Bhopal, built under King Bhoja of the Parmar dynasty, features Bhumija-style architecture and a polished 22-foot Shiva lingam on a three-level yoni. Partly unfinished, with restored lotus ceiling and intricate carvings, the temple overlooks the Betwa and Vindhya foothills, attracting historians, devotees and tourists drawn to its enduring spiritual mystery.
