It is located at Anantnag, Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

It was built by the third ruler of the Karkota Dynasty, Lalitaditya Muktapida, in the 8th century CE.
The Martand temple was built on top of a plateau from where one can view whole of the Kashmir Valley.
At one time this temple was a symbol of grand artistic style but now only ruins remain.

The Vishvanatha Temple is in  Madhya Pradesh.

The temple is dedicated to Shiva, who is also known as "Vishvanatha" meaning "Lord of the Universe".
महादेव❤
जय हो 🙏🚩
The temple is built by the  Chandela king Dhanga. Dhanga constructed a magnificent Shiva temple with two lingas (symbols of Shiva).
One linga – Marakateshvara  ("Emerald Lord") – was made of emerald.
The other linga – Pramathanatha ("Lord of Pramathas") – was made of stone.
It designed as a panchayatana  complex, which comprises one main shrine surrounded by four smaller subsidiary shrines.
It features several sculptures of various deities, surasundaris, couples making love & mythical creatures.
The main shrine is an example of the nagara style.

आदि शंकराचार्य द्वारा परिभाषित चार धाम में चार हिंदू तीर्थ स्थल शामिल हैं। यह माना जाता है कि प्रत्येक हिंदू को अपने जीवनकाल में चार धाम की यात्रा करनी चाहिए।

मुझे सौभाग्य मिला चारो धाम के दर्शन करने का।
ऊँ नमो नारायण🙏❤🚩
1)बद्रीनाथ धाम
भगवान नारायण ने यहां तपस्या की। ऐसा माना जाता है कि नारायण को बचाने के लिए मां लक्ष्मी बेर का पेड़ बन गईं। संस्कृत भाषा में, जामुन को बद्री कहा जाता है। तपस्या के बाद नारायण ने कहा,लोग उनके नाम से पहले हमेशा उनका नाम लेंगे। इसलिए इसे बद्री-नाथ कहा जाता था।
2)रामेश्वरम धाम
रामेश्वरम को त्रेता युग में महत्व मिला जब भगवान राम ने यहां शिव-लिंगम का निर्माण किया और भगवान शिव का आशीर्वाद पाने के लिए इसकी पूजा की। रामेश्वरम नाम का अर्थ है "राम का भगवान"।
