★ ★ ★ ★ ★ These temples are one of the oldest temples in Bisnupur. This temple situated by Mallaraj Maharaj Gopal Singha. This temple is for Hinduism. Well maintained. Beautiful garden is here. Need more maintenance because the beautiful on the walls is gradually decaying. These temples are the proof of the great Terracotta art of Bengal.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ These temples, of laterite, were built by Malla King Gopal Singh in 1726. Each temple has a single dome (eka ratna). All these temples are square, and constructed on a raised platform and surmounted by a single sikhara with a sloping roof. The central temple is elaborately ornamented with exquisite stucco work, depicting scenes mostly from Ramayana and Krishna Lila.
The temples are located in a large ASI secured enclosure and boasts of a well decorated garden.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful place to spend time. Built approx 300 years ago it was built. One of the oldest group of temples is in Bishnupur.
Laterite soil designs can be seen. Along with temples, one beautiful ground is there.
Various deity designs are there but temples are naked standing without deities.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (Visited in February 2022) - Jor Mandir Temple complex of Bishnupur houses three separate temples made of laterite, in distinct Eka-ratna style on a raised plinth, attributed to local Mallabhum rulers of early 18th century CE. The exteriors of the temple are nice. An adjacent garden houses a weekly haat.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amongst a plethora of unique Terracotta Temples scattered throughout Bishnupur, the Jor Mandir Temples are the ones that I liked the most. It's located near Poramatir Haat and can be easily accessed by walking during your trip to the renowned Chinnamasta Temple. Apart from the three breathtakingly captivating temples, what I loved the most was the reposeful environment of this place. This area is so serene, peaceful and holy that you feel like spending your entire day here itself. The garden is replete with colourful flowering plants, flock of parrots, lush green grass and narrow walkways made from red-soil. All the three structures take you back hundreds of years into the glorious past of Bishnupur. You can find those fading intricate artworks on the outer terracotta walls of the temples, constructed by expert ancient craftsmen. Tickets are not required for entering the temple premises. I would highly recommend tourists to visit this temple while exploring Bishnupur. ??

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Though known as Jor Mandir (meaning pair of temples), it is actually a complex of three Eka-Ratna temples: Two big temples of same size and a small one. These temples were built by Malla King Krishna Singh (pronunciation: sing-ho) in 1726. These ‘Eka-Ratna’ or ‘single towered’ temples are made of rust-coloured laterite. The big temple has a square base of 11.8m X 11.8m and a height of 12.8m above a low platform. The roofs of all three temples are typical Bengali 'chala' type surmounted by a ‘sikhara’ or tower. Around the innermost sanctuary where the idol is kept, there are covered porches on three sides. Except the rear wall, on each of these three sides there are three arched openings. The frontal façade of the temples were once decorated with beautiful art works of lateritic material and stucco depicting mythological events. Most of the decorations have ruined. For more detail please see ASI notice.
