The temple is quite old and is decorated with intricately carved images. On the main alter of the temple, there is a Shiv Ling. The upper portion of the Linga has been damaged. Behind the Shiva Linga, there is an idol of Parvati and to the right is an idol of Ganesh. The entrance door of the temple is very beautiful and the carved images on it are probably those of Nag Kanya. There are numerous images of Nag with face on the entrance door and every where in the temple. Only the face of the Nag is visible but the tail portion cannot be seen. Outside the temples, there are number of images carved on the stones. On the right side of the temple is a '"Jal-Kund"' a pit fitted with water. There is a belief among the people about the Shiva Linga of the temple that a cow belonging to a cowherd sprinkled the mud heap with milk. When the cowherd, was not getting any milk from the cow, he found out the secret and dug the mud heap, where he found the Shiva Linga.

There is a Bhairav Mandir to the right of the main temple. There is an idol of Bhairav Outside the boundary of the temple, there is another temple of Goddess Durga and Kali. This was probably built about 500 years ago by a Zamindar of Korba. It is said that these idols have been brought by the korba land-lord from Ratanpur to Korba. However, when they halted at village Kanki for rest, the elephant, on which these idols were being brought, did not get up after taking rest.The land-lord then thought that this was God's wish and he installed these idols at Kanki itself. There are no documents to know as to how ancient the temple is. It is said that this temple is one of those temples, which is built an 'Chamasi Raat' (according to Hindu Religion and beliefs, this is the year in which there are continuous six months only day and the next six months only nights).'Chamasi Raat' means that the temple was built within six months only on nights. Presently, this temple is the center of worship of thousand of devotees and every year there is a fate (mela) held in the month of 'Phagun'.
