This temple is the birth place of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, and the structure is built in white marbled towers 30 m high. Yoga Peeth in Mayapur is a center of excellence teaching Yoga, Vedas and meditation.
It is assumed that Chaitanya was born under a neem tree. This tree is still seen there in the premise of Yoga Peeth. There is a hut which contains the clay models and statues displaying the life and philosophies of Saint. A small shrine devoted to Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur who raised the fund for building the original temple is also located nearby.
