Day Trip to Bijolia Temples

A day trip to the Bijolia Temples offers a rewarding extension to your Chittorgarh itinerary, especially for travellers interested in medieval temple architecture. Located within the wider Chittorgarh state region of Rajasthan, Bijolia features a remarkable group of 10th to 12th century shrines dedicated mainly to Lord Shiva. The most prominent shrine, often referred to as the Undeshwar Temple, stands as a fine example of early Chittorgarh temple style with detailed carvings and ornate pillars. Though separate from Chittorgarh fort, these temples reflect the same Rajput artistic traditions supported by various rulers, including more than one powerful Chittorgarh king.
