On the road towards the Saal valley, a small red-and-white roadside arch leads to the exquisite 12th-century sikhara -style Bajreshwari Devi Temple, dedicated to Bajreshwari, an incarnation of Durga. The very rich carving includes a niche on the rear outside wall with an image of Durga slaying the (minuscule-looking) giant Mahisasur and standing on his buffalo vehicle.
