The ruins of the Udayagiri Caves and the nearby Brahmanical temples reflect the city’s rich religious history.

A historic town in Madhya Pradesh’s Vidisha district, Gyaraspur flourished during the 9th–10th century CE. Renowned for its Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist monuments like Maladevi Temple and Hindola Torana, it reflects rich cultural syncretism. Ancient ruins scattered across its landscape narrate tales of medieval glory and religious harmony.

Dating back to the 9th century, it is a stunning hybrid of rock-cut and structural architecture. Originally a Brahmical temple, it now houses Jain Tirthankaras. Its intricate carvings, lofty shikhara, and natural cavern sanctum showcase the artistic brilliance of the Gurjara-Pratihara dynasty.
Hindola Torana
It is a freestanding ornamental archway adorned with exquisite carvings of Vishnu's Dashavatara, apsaras, and floral motifs. Likely built by the Kachchhapaghata dynasty, this structure once marked the entrance to a grand temple, now in ruins, reflecting its historical and architectural significance.
