Temple of Madan Mohonji

 

The temple of Madan Mohonji is located at Brahmpur Nahabam Leikai (Nahabam Bamon Leikai) in Imphal, and is around 500 metres from the protected temple of Lord Krishna at Brahmapur Guru Aribam Leikai.
The exact date of construction of the temple is not known but it is assumed that the temple was built sometime after 1850 A.D. but before 1879 A.D. as there is a saying that the temple escaped damage in the severe earthquake (Yuharaba Achouba) of 1879 A.D.
The style of the temple is very similar to that of the temple of Lord Krishna. The architecture seems to be an imitation of the latter. The temple is square shaped. The superstructure of the shrine rests on a high molded plinth. The protected area is 162.16 sq.m.
