Jatar Deul, Hindu temple in Paschim Jatar Deul, India

The brick temple rises 30 meters high with a square foundation measuring 9.30 meters on each side, featuring vertical gradations and an ogival portal.

Built between the 10th and 11th centuries, the temple was discovered by land surveyors in the mid-19th century within the dense Sundarbans region.

The temple holds an annual fair during mid-April, where local residents participate in horse races and religious ceremonies near the structure.

The monument stands 7 kilometers from Raidighi Bus Stand, with visitors needing to descend six feet below ground level to access the internal chamber.

The windowless sanctum contains multiple Lingas along with images and statues representing different deities from the Hindu pantheon.
