Rasmancha, Hindu temple monument in Bishnupur, India.

The Rasmancha features a square design with three concentric galleries, laterite stone base, and brick upper structure measuring 24.5 meters on each side.

King Hambir Malla Dev commissioned the construction of Rasmancha in 1600 CE, establishing it as a central venue for religious gatherings in Bishnupur.

During the annual Vaishnava Ras festival, the temple becomes a central display space where Radha Krishna idols from surrounding temples gather for worship.

The Archaeological Survey of India maintains this Monument of National Importance, which receives visitors interested in Bengal temple architecture throughout the year.

Three-tiered corridors with vaulted roofs encircle the central shrine, creating a distinct architectural pattern not found in other Indian temples.
