Bishnupur, Bankura district, West Bengal · 23.0820°, 87.3177°
A Krishna temple at Bishnupur built in 1665 by Churamoni Devi, wife of the Mallabhum king Bir Singha Dev. Its single tower over a pillared covered ambulatory is a textbook example of the Bengal ek-ratna form, and the ASI holds it as a Monument of National Importance.
