English: The Group of Temples at Markanda – also called the Markandi Temples – is a major complex of twenty four Hindu temples from the 9th to 11th century, on the western banks of Wainganga River in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra, India. The village is named after this complex and called Markanda. It is about 8 kilometers northeast of Chamorshi town.
The twenty four temples at Markanda were first documented and published by Cunningham in 1925. Of those, four temples survive in a substantial form:
Markandeshvara Temple is the main temple; it is also called Markanda Rishi Temple, Markanda #Mahadeva Temple or Markanda Deva Temple
Yamadharma Temple
Mrikunda Rishi Temple
Shankara Temple
These temples are notable for their architecture as well as their extensive and beautiful carvings. These narrate Ramayana and Mahabharata scenes, Vedic legends, stories from Shiva, Vishnu and Devi traditions, as well as kama and artha scenes.
