Is the following datatype is recommended?

Map<String,Map<String,List<Map<String,List<Map<String,String>>>>>> tempvar = new Map<String,Map<String,List<Map<String,List<Map<String,String>>>>>>();
is there any alterntive or best practise? i am well aware about wrapper classes.

Hi please Suggest me the Best practise.

What is it that you're trying to accomplish? 

From a Maintainability, Flexibility, and Readability perspective, the above is not considred best practice. Plus, every parameter in the Map will require instantiation which is also expensive.

Take a look at this for Java Maps:

Kinda of complex, what are you trying to achieve? are you calculatin something, is it form a visualforce?

this looks like a tree of data, you are loading the data structure in the memory with at least 5 levels deep?
maybe you can change your approach to tone down a little bit.
