History & tradition
Rajiv Lochan Temple is at Rajim in Chhattisgarh and is dated to the 8th century. The principal deity is a four-armed form of Vishnu. The temple stands in the middle of a courtyard with four smaller shrines at the corners, and consists of a hall, an antechamber and a sanctum crowned by a shikhara. It is admired for its elaborately carved doorways, pillars and pilasters showing gods, goddesses and other figures. An inscription inside attributes its construction to Vilasatunga of the Nala dynasty. Pilgrims on the way to Jagannath Puri visit in large numbers.
