The Masrur Temple at Kangra in the state of Himachal Pradesh is famous for its rock cut structures. There are fifteen monolithic rock cut temples in the Indo Aryan style and are richly carved. These richly ornamented cave temples forms the only rock cut shrines in the whole of North India. There are three stone images in the main shrine. The images include Ram, Laxman and Sita. But there is a figure of Lord Shiva in the middle of the lintel. This affords a strong presumption that the temple was originally dedicated to Mahadeva.
