Well maintained. History: On the way from Mahadeb Bari to Badara Mokam, one would find three temples on the left side of the road. Commonly known as Gunabati Mandir Gucchha (Gunabati Group of Temples), the origin of the temples and the identity of their founders are still shrouded in obscurity. Stone-inscription of only one temple throws some light on its history. It reveals that it was built in the name of Her Highness Maharani Gunabati (Wife of Maharaja Govinda Manikya), in 1668 A.D. The two other temples also bear contemporary look but their actual history is still to be unveiled. Architecture of these temples resembles other contemporary temples of Tripura except that the topmost parts are without Stupa. Core-Chambers are marked by the presence of pitcher-headed female forms as buttresses. The temple in the middle has a semi-circular core chamber and its vestibule which was large with Stupa like crown, is now almost completely damaged. The crown over the Stupa in the vestibule is beautifully crafted like lotus.

A trio of old temples in the middle of the town. Thankfully they are well preserved, full marks to ASI, and give a glimpse into the traditional temple architecture of the area from a bygone age.

Udaipur - The other lake city. The grimy former capital of Tripura carries the marks and memories of the long reign of the Manikya kings who ruled this region centuries ago. The town is dotted with scores of stunning medieval temples built in the Bengali char chala style. Complemented by serene old lakes built by successive Manikya kings, these ancient temples are more than religious footprints. They are reflections of the glorious artistic heritage of the state #IncredibleIndia #TinyTripura #TempleHopping
