This 400-year-old temple is dedicated to Meera Bai, the legendry poetess who dedicated her whole life worshiping Lord Krishna and spreading her message all over India. The cenotaph (chhatri) of Meera Bai's Guru Shri Rai Das of Banaras is situated in front of the temple. A figure of five human bodies with one head is carved inside the cenotaph.
