This is an eighteenth century temple located in the Tetulia region. It is most famous for it’s ornate terracotta bricks that cover the entire exterior of the temple. From Banglapedia: Every available inch of its wall surface from the base to the crest of its three stories, both inside and out, pulsates with an amazing profusion of figured and floral art in unbroken succession. The vast array of subject matter include the stories of the mahabharata (Mahabharata) and the ramayana (Ramayana), the exploits of Krsna, and a series of extremely fascinating contemporary social scenes depicting the favourite pastimes of the landed aristocracy.
