Kal Bhairava Temple




Kal Bhairava Temple is an ancient temple situated at Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, near the intersection of Chauli Road and Kabir Chaura Road. This highly sacred shrine is devoted to Kal Bhairava, a terrifying aspect of Lord Shiva, who cut off the fifth head of Brahma. He is also considered by the devotees as the religious magistrate of the city. This is the only temple which miraculously escaped from the hands of Aurangzeb.
