দোতলা এই মন্দিরটির নিয়ন্ত্রন বাংলাদেশ সরকার গ্রহন করে এটিকে পুরাকীর্তি নিদর্শন হিসেবে ঘোষণা করেছে। কবে মন্দিরটি নির্মিত হয়েছিল তা জানা না গেলেও এটির নাম থেকে প্রতীয়মান হয় যে রাজারাম নামে কোন এক ধনাঢ্য ব্যাক্তি মন্দিরটি নির্মাণ করেছিলেন। মন্দিরটির দেয়াল এবং পিলারে টেরাকোটার কাজ পরিলক্ষিত হয়। বিশেষজ্ঞদের মতে মন্দিরে অঙ্কিত চিত্রগুলো মহাভারত এবং রামায়নের কিছু অংশকে বর্ণনা করছে। আপনি যদি পুরাকীর্তি নিদর্শন পছন্দ করেন তবে এই মন্দিরে আপনাকে আসতেই হবে।

He excelled in his studies a studied in Islamic study and Islamic theology. He achieved spiritual perfection (Kamaliyyah) after years of study and meditation.
Travel to India: According to legend, He came in India with a group of Muslim saints. All saints had a handful of soil, they had to choose to settle and propagate Islam in any place in India where the soil exactly matched. Shahrasti reached India in c.1300. He matched the soil with the soil of Camilla and stayed on a hill. But the place was wrong. After that, a tiger came to him to the right place where the soil exactly matched that later life.
