The Shree Sanwaliya Seth temple at Mandaphia is one of the busiest Krishna temples in Rajasthan. Sanwaliya Seth is a dark form of Krishna, and many traders and farmers treat him as a business partner, offering him a share of their profits. The temple gets very crowded on weekends, on Ekadashi and during festivals such as Janmashtami. It lies about 40 km from Chittorgarh, a short detour off the Chittorgarh to Udaipur highway, so it is easy to add to a trip between the two cities.
