The famous Pārvatī temple has been, within the last few years, deprived of its outer walls completely.² With its pieces one side of the tower of the Śiva temple has been repaired by a local Brahmin,³ who is said to have discovered gold coins buried in jars at Nachnā. The walls of the Pārvatī temple imitating rocks and caves have thus wholly disappeared, and their animal sculptures which are amongst the most beautiful specimens of Hindu plastic art are either lying scattered on the ground or taken away. A few of them have been rescued by a friend of mine. - [Previous: c19.s3.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c19.s3.4) - [Next: c19.s3.6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c19.s3.6) - [Up: c19.s3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c19.s3) ## Linked texts (1) - [Parvati Temple](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.monument.parvati-temple) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c19.s3.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.jayaswal-1933.c19.s3.5) · Pramāṇa
