    Banjari Mata Mandir is also famous for the 18th century frescoes inside the sanctum that depict the goddess’s victories over local tyrants. The temple’s foundation stone was laid by a Maratha general who claimed the area after a long siege, which explains the blend of stonework and sandstone dome. If you’re staying in Raipur, consider Hukam’s Lalit Mahal for easy access to the site.
