Shri Kedar Temple (also known as Kedareswara Temple) is a medieval Hindu temple dedicated to Shiva located at top of Madanachala hill in Hajo, Kamrup, Assam. The central chamber has a linga. The temple, along with the two walls adjacent, build by Ahom King Rajeswara Singha in 1753. The linga in this temple is considered as Swayambhu - the one that originates itself and is not crafted or made. [1] [2] [3] [4]
