Dedicated to Lord Vishnu, Chaturbhuj Temple was built by Raja Madhukar during the years 1558 to 1573.  The temple is named Chaturbhuj which literally translates to ‘one who has four arms’ referring to Lord Rama.

The temple boasts of ornate decorations with religious symbols on the walls which are wonderful to witness. Denoting striking similarities to the Kushal Mahal in Chanderi, Chaturbhuj Temple is astounding as it doesn’t have any erotic carvings for which the Khajuraho temples are known for.

The temple is also called Jatakari Temple and known for its intricate architecture.
