Bhaskareswar Temple - Bhubaneshwar


It stands about a quarter mile to west of the Megeswar. The local people make a confusion between these two temples and assign the name of one to other. The Bhaskareswar contains a huge Siva lingam, about 9 feet high and 12 feet & 5 inches in circumference, which has charecteristically been described in the local sacred texts as Vrihalingam.
