Temples

Morali Manohar Temple

A beautiful temple older than 750 years, showing various architectural styles like Gujarati ornamental, Rajasthani & Indo-mughal styles. This temple has Shiv temple, Ram temple and the main Krishna temple on the bank of river Utavali.

It is named as Murali Manohar meaning lord Krishna holding murali (flute) in a lovely pose with Radha. This temple has chariot style on top. It depicts incarnations of Vishnu, Shiva-Parvati along with incarnations of goddess Umiya (Durga) on its wall. It has various floral and leaf designs as in Arabic architectures.

Hindu temples are faced in east (rising sun) direction but only three temples in world like Dwakadhish temple, Dakor temple and this Murali Manohar Temple faces to West (setting sun) direction.

This historically important structure now needs restoration from archeological department of India as it comes under their property but steps are not taken to protect it. This is a serious thing to be taken under care. Many parts of temple are now damaged and have started falling.
