Chaumukhi Mahadeva Temple

The Chaumukhi Mahadeva Temple is believed to date back to the ancient Licchavi period, a time when Vaishali flourished as a republic. While the exact date of construction remains unknown, its architectural style and the presence of the four-faced lingam suggest its antiquity. The temple has witnessed the rise and fall of various empires and has withstood the test of time, albeit with some damage. Despite its ruined state, the temple continues to be a place of worship and reverence for devotees, reflecting its enduring spiritual significance. The historical importance of Vaishali as a center of Buddhism and Jainism adds another layer to the temple's historical context.
