Old Temple, reservedly called as “Shri Hit Mandir” by the devotees, is by the side of the main gates of the present temple. This temple, built-in 1585 A.D in red sandstone, has long attracted favorable attention from visiting archaeologists and art historians.
The old RadhaVallabh temple, a unique architectural fabric of medieval centuries, had three aligned spaces: the inner sanctum (garbhagriha); anterior platform (Jag Mohan); and a long hall with a high vaulted ceiling (mandap). This temple represents a living dialogue between Hindu and Islamic elements in medieval architecture. The walls having a thickness of 10 feet and are pierced in two stages, the upper stage is being a regular Triforium to which access was obtained by an internal staircase. This Triforium is a reproduction of Mohammadian design, while they work, both upper and below is purely Hindu. In fact, this temple is the last temple in the neighborhood in which a naive was built at all. In the modern style, it is so completely obsolete that its distinctive name is even forgotten by some architects.
