Of all the Temples in Kota, Kansua Temple, Kota deserves special mention. It is a great site for Shaivaite pilgrim tour.

This is perhaps due to the extraordinary structure of the Shiva Lingam present inside the temple.

History of Kansua Temple:
The Temples in Kota were conquered by the Hada chieftain Rao Deva. But during the reign of Jahangir, who had been a deep admirer of architectural works, paintings and other art forms, these temples were gifted to the Mughals by Madho Rao, the son of Rao Deva. Since the city of Kota is replete with abundant quantity of stone idols of various shapes and forms, gold stained glass works on the walls of the temples, silver mirror works embellishing the beauty and marvelous wall paintings, Jahangir accepted the ownership of Kota quite gladly. Therefore, you can also find a huge number of Mughal Paintings and Architectures over here.
