Jagdish Temple
Jagdish Temple is a 17th-century Indo-Aryan style temple in central Udaipur, dedicated to Vishnu, notable for its elaborately carved exterior covering the entire structure, from the base to the spire, with detailed depictions of deities, musicians, and elephants. It's one of the largest and most important temples in Udaipur, still an active center of daily worship.
Given its central location close to City Palace, it's an easy, quick addition to a broader old-city Udaipur walking tour, and the density of exterior carving rewards a slow look before heading inside.
