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.
