Indian Industrialist Aditya Birla once had his future told by an old man - he was told that as long as his artisans were busy building Hindu temples, his business would flourish. To this day, Aditya Birla companies build on strengths from foundation by Baldeo Das Birla. They operate many diversified businesses, and many charitable organisations as well.
The temple is made of white marble and is dedicated to Vishnu's manifestation, Narayan and his consort Laxmi.
Above the temple lies the Moti Doongri Fort, which is home to Gayatri Devi, the mother of the current Maharaja - Brigadier His Highness Saramad-i-Rajaha-i-Hindustan Raj Rajendra Shri Maharajadhiraja Maharaja Sawai Shri Bhawani Singh Bahadur, Maharaja of Jaipur (or just Bhawani Singh).
