One of many temples nearby and open to the public is the Jagannath Temple at Agartala. Its orange tower rises from an octagonal plinth across the road. It contains some fascinating and very colourful sculptures depicting various episodes in Krishna`s life.

On the border with Bangladesh, 27 km south of Agartala, the large lake of Kamala Sagar is overlooked by a small but important Kali Temple. Its 12th century sandstone image of Mahishasuramardini, a form of Durga, has a Shiva linga in front of it. Buses leave from Battala bus stand in Agartala to the lake daily.

The former capital of the Manikyas, Udaipur, retains an atmosphere of antiquity not found in the metropolis of Agartala. An important market town, it is surrounded by paddy fields and low forested hills. On the southwest bank of Jagannath Dighi tank, stand the ruins of the Jagannath temple, while the 17th century Mughal Masjid marks the furthest outpost of the Mughal Empire.

Tripura Sundari, the most important temple in the area, stands 5 km outside Udaipur, on a small hillock in front of a holy lake which teems with carp and turtles. Built in typical Bengali-hut style with a square sanctum and large meeting hall in front. This is one of the 51 shakti peethas sacred to the Tantras, marking the spot where Satis right leg is supposed to have fallen when Lord Shiva was carrying her body from the funeral pyre. Animal sacrifices are performed here daily.

Besides these there is the Bhuvaneswari Temple in Udaipur. this temple is closely associated with Rabindranath Tagore, the poet laureate. In his novels, such as, `Rajarshi` and `Bisharjan` this temple has been mentioned.
