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।

Gouri Moth (a sacred place dedicated to the culture of Krishna lifestyle) was established in 1943 in Barodia, Kalia, Narail. After a couple of renovations, it is still there to welcome the devotees of Lord Srikrishno. There are some other Gourio moths in entire Bangladesh too. The most prominent one is in Dhaka at Narinda/Wari area.
In 1943, Turyaswami established the original temple after which he put the idol of Radha-Krishno in it. In 1971, during the liberation war of Bangladesh, Pakistani Army destroyed almost everywhere temple in Bangladesh but luckily the Narail area was a base of Bangladeshi Freedom Fighters so that they did not manage to destroy the temple. However, the temple needed renovation, so another Guru (religious preacher) Santo Goswami made a reconstruction of the temple complex.
25 years ago, from Rajstan (India), a White Shiv Lingam has bought in here. Now it is a Shiv Temple too and people come to worship the lingam. It is made of White Marble which is only one of the tenth of its entire criterion in Bangladesh. To see another marble made white Shiv lingam, you need to visit the Rajshahi Barenda Museum or Khulna Divisional Museum.
Few years back, idol of new Radha-Krishno was brought into this temple as well. So, now the temple looks almost as a new structure but many people did not know that it is a historical place and also a heritage sight of Bangladesh especially for the hindu religious people. It is basically a Krishna Temple that means they worship Krishna mainly. In every year during the eve of Krishna's Birthday (Jonmastomi) they arrange a three days program to celebrate it. About 1000 local Hindu people attends the dinner (bhog/prosad) and they sings the holy krishna songs for the entire night.
