King Jhujaroofa of Tripura defeated the Mog dynasty and captured Rangamati and established his new capital at  Udaipur in the middle of year  590 AD. His descendants changed their name to Manikya and constructed several temples in Udaipur such as Tripurasundari temple, Bhubaneswari temple, Gunabati Mandir, Shiva temple, Jagannath temple, Gopinath temple, Badarsahed Bari, and Dutia Mandir. During this phase several lakes like Amarsagar, Jagannath Dighi, Dhanisagar (Dhanya Sagar) and Bijoy Sagar (Mahadeb Dighi) were dug to add beauty to the city of lakes and temples. Udaipur also previously known as Rangmati ceased to be the capital of Tripura in the 19th century.
