History & tradition
Bhand Deva Temple, also called Bhand Devara, is a temple complex near Ramgarh village in the Baran district of Rajasthan, about 40 km from Baran. It stands on the bank of a lake inside the four-kilometre-wide Ramgarh crater, which was formed by a meteor impact. The complex has one main Shiva temple and two cave temples further up the hill. Because the main temple is built in the style of the Khajuraho monuments, it is known as Little Khajuraho.
