These twin temples are dedicated to Mahadey and located in the village of Dihar which is 8 km distant from Bishnupur. You will see a Nandi Bull seated at the entrance of the Sareswar Temple as if it is protecting it. These temples, made of laterite stone, are majestic examples of Oriya Deul style architecture. This place becomes a pilgrimage during ‘Mahashivratri’ festival and ‘Gajan’.

Malleswar temple is one of the earliest temples of Bishnupur. It is located near Jor Bangla temple. It is square on plan with a rekha sikhara. The original sikhara is replaced with an octagonal sikhara now.

The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva, but there is no deity found now. A beautiful idol of Nandi is found in front of the shrine.

This temple looks unique in its style compared to the other temples of Bishnupur.

Near this temple, an old Thakur Dalan is situated. Thakur Dalans have become more like an heritage symbol nowadays. In those days, the Durga deity used to be placed in this building during Navaratri celebrations. This particular Thakur Dalan of Bishnupur has heritage importance.
