In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized rectangular metric spaces which extends rectangular metric spaces introduced by Branciari. Analogues of the some well-known fixed point theorems are proved in this space. With an example, it is shown that a generalized rectangular metric space is neither a G-metric space nor a rectangular metric space. Our results generalize many known results in fixed point theory.
