The temple's central shrine houses a majestic idol of Lord Rangji, intricately carved and adorned with jewels.
The Rangji Temple was built in the 18th century by Seth Puran Mal Ganeriwal, a wealthy merchant from Mathura. He was a devotee of Lord Rangji and commissioned the construction of the temple to honor his deity. The temple has since been a place of worship and pilgrimage for followers of Lord Vishnu.
