Bhitargaon Temple
 

Bhitargaon Temple, located about 32 km south of Kanpur at Bhitargaon, is a 6th century temple constructed with large bricks and mud on a high terrace of 15.41 meter. The art work of the temple is similar to the Gupta period and the elaborate carvings on the exterior brick and terracotta panels shows the skillful craftsmanship of the workers. 
The interior of the temple consists only the sanctum and the porch. The sanctum which resembles tri-ratha stands incomplete indicating the absence of an upper chamber. The temple has a central offset on three sides and there is an entrance hall, which is connected by a rectangle passage. The walls are adorned with figures of animals, birds, beasts and sculptures depicting various divinities, myths and stories.
