Hill of giant rock-cut Shiva carvings near Kailashahar, with the 30-foot Unakotiswara Kal Bhairava head.
Unakoti, meaning one less than a crore, is a Shaivite pilgrimage site of rock reliefs and stone images on a forested hill in Unakoti district, dated by most sources to the 7th to 9th centuries. The central Shiva head, Unakotiswara Kal Bhairava, is about 30 feet high including a 10-foot head-dress, flanked by female figures, with Ganesha carvings and half-buried Nandi bulls nearby. The site is looked after by the ASI. The Ashokastami Mela in March-April draws thousands of pilgrims.
