Dwarkadhish Temple

Dwarikadhish Mahal*This 16th century monumental temple is dedicated to Dwardkadhish (one of the seven forms of Krishna).

*The idol was brought from Mathura and installed in 1676 by Maharaja Raj Singh I , the head priest being one of the descendants of Vallabhacharya - the Vaishnava Spiritual Guru.

*The temple overlooking the Rajasamand Lake makes a quite a pretty and attractive sight.
