The Narayanpal Temple is a historic Hindu temple located near the confluence of the Indravati and Narangi rivers in the Bastar district of Chattisgarh, India.[1] It is dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu, the creator and protector of the universe in Hindu mythology. The temple is situated in the village of Narayanpal, about 4 kilometers east of the reputed Chitrakote Falls. The temple was built around 1111 AD by Mumunda Devi, a queen of the Chindaka Naga dynasty. It was built in the Nagara style of Hindu temple architecture and influenced by the Chalukya style as well.[2]
The inscriptions present at the temple are written in the Devanagari script.The inscription details a land grant to a 'Lokeswar' by Gunda Mahadevi, the queen-mother of the Chindaka Naga dynasty.[3]
