A Mandir is a traditional Hindu temple shrine, often placed in the home to create a sacred environment for prayer and worship. The Mandir can be made of wood, marble, or metal and is often richly decorated with carvings, small towers, and other decorative elements reminiscent of larger temple architecture.

In many households, the Mandir is placed on an elevated surface, such as a cabinet or shelf, to honor the shrine and give it a central position. The shrine serves as a place to keep figures or images of deities, and it is often adorned with flowers, incense sticks, and other sacred items.
