The correct answer is C: 2, 4 and 5
Here's why:
Nagara style temples are a distinct style of Hindu temple architecture common in North India.
Odisha's Nagara style has its unique variations.
Let's break down the temples:
Jagannath Temple (Puri): While incredibly important, it has a unique style different from the typical Bhubaneswar Nagara style.
Lingaraja Temple (Bhubaneswar): This is a prime example of the mature Kalinga (Odisha) Nagara style.
Sun Temple (Konark): While a masterpiece, it represents a developed and slightly different stage of the Kalinga Nagara style, not typically grouped with the Bhubaneswar examples.
Mukteswar Temple (Bhubaneswar): An early and beautifully ornamented example of the Odisha Nagara style.
Parasurameswara Temple (Bhubaneswar): One of the oldest surviving temples in Bhubaneswar, showcasing an early phase of the style.
Therefore, Lingaraja, Mukteswar, and Parasurameswara temples are the best examples of the Odisha type Nagara style found in Bhubaneswar.
