BHIMA DEVI Temple
The temple is situated in the Pinjore city of district Panchkula, HARYANA The temple complex comprises the ruins of the temple, aesthetically arranged in an open-air museum (patterned on the original Panchayatana layout) housing 80 pedestals fixed with the excavated sculptures, and the Pinjore gardens with which the temple complex is fully integrated (with 150 focus lights). The temple, located in Pinjore , is dated from archaeological excavations as an ancient historical and religious place. Archaeological excavations have revealed that this region, extending from Pinjore to Nalagarh, establishes the earliest habitation by man to 1.5 million years ago. This is based on tools of the Paleolithic period found in quartzite formations in the region. Also, from the rock edicts found from the temple ruins in the area during excavations, it has been conjectured that they were constructed during the reign of Raja Ram Dev.
