Chaturbhuj Temple

Chaturbhuj Temple is Orchha's most dramatic architectural landmark — a massive 17th-century temple tower soaring 98 metres, originally built to house the idol of Lord Ram (later installed at Ram Raja Temple instead). Its extraordinary vertical silhouette dominates the Orchha skyline and climbing to the upper levels rewards with sweeping Betwa River views. A top Orchha sightseeing and photography destination. Modest entry fee applies. The empty sanctum has an eerie grandeur all its own.
