Tamresvari Temple

The temple of Tamresvari is one of the oldest and the most important temples of this region. It now stands in a ruined state in the over-grown jungle about seven miles from Sadiya. The temple is described as a small stone building, nearly square, but without cement, the stone joined by iron pins not clamped. The roof was of copper, but it has fallen in. The interior is eight feet square. The whole is enclosed within a brick wall, 130 feet by 200 feet. The walls of the temple were decorated with sculptural representation, which included human figures, animals, birds, flowers, geometrical designs, etc. There was also the representation of mithuna (erotic) sculptures. The temple of Tamresvari, which was once the flourishing center of tantric religion, is now seen only in ruins. It is not easy to reach the spot where we can see the remains of the temple without the aid of the people of the locality who are conversant with the place. We do not hear of human sacrifices made at the altars of the temple and this practice has been given up.
