Joy Maa Bhobotarinir Joy 🙏🙏 One of the cleanest Kali temple in West Bengal

A spiritual place related to Sri Sri Ramkrishna Dev, Ma Sarada, Cyclonic Monk Swami Vivekananda, where the Bhobotarinimata worshiped. You can find the mental peace here.

Love as though your heart know no bounds...

One of the most peaceful place in Kolkata.

One of the most beautiful holy place in West Bengal, India. Famous in all over the world.

Loved visiting there. Had a very good experience as there was no crowd at all due to the corona condition. Also it was raining a bit during my visit. I could get ample time in front of Maa. Also.. could move freely in and around the temple. Overall a very good experience

It was really awesome. We the Bengali Hindus are a part of sakta tradition and for us this place gives a spiritual romantic vive which is beyond imagination.

Dakshineswar Ma Bhavatarini temple was founded by Rani Rashmoni in the year 1855.This Temple is famous for Thakur Sri Sri Ramakrishna,Ma Sharada & Swami Vivekananda.Very spacious temple having Ma kali,12 Shiva lingas & Radhakrishna idol.Thakur Ramakrishnas residential room is also present inside the temple premises.Temple is very well maintained , neat & clean.River Ganges is flowing just beside the temple.The temple is well connected to Kolkata by Train, buses & Metrorail. I think this is one of the best & beautiful TEMPLE in India.

A great place in Bengal that founded by Mata Rani Rashmoni. Kali deity temple. Lots of people gather there to pray accordingly.

Very good place u can visit today..

Just wow 😲The security, the service, and their organising way was just wow 😊❤Almost everything was good and had a good experience 🤘🏻😊Though this was not the month of durga pooja even though there was a queue.... 😐Almost good and everything there was in a systematic way 😳

Whenever I go to the place,this never disappoint me and I feels like I want to see more,spend more time there,specially in the evening time.The serenity and calmness around the place give my mind a devastating peace and happiness!

Lovely place.well planed, total area is clean.great.

The most sacred place in Kolkata. Its so calm and beautiful here. If you seek solace and peace from the hustle bustle of the city this is the place to be. Come here in the evening and after offering prayers in mothers temple you can simply relax by looking at the sunset and beautiful nature. My favorite place to be.

Very neat and clean Temple. About 16-20 KM away from Howrah and sealdah railway station.Better to reach there by train rather than opting public bus as option. (Time consuming) .Whenever you go there check about local trains. (I opted train from sealdah railway station at 6:35 AM) .Reached there at 7 AM. Then via Sky bridge you can reach at the gate of temple in approx 8-10 min.If you have luggage, there is the facility of locker room over there. 20 rupees for carry bags and 3 ₹ for mobile phone was charged by me. Shoes was also to submit ( 3₹ ) . However if you dont want to submit your belonging here you can place them in shop from where you are buying prasad. ( But at your own risk).You will find peace all around . No crowd.There is Hooghly river, you can take bath there. Scenes are good as shown in photos.Statue of Vivekanand ji is there, a nice place to click photos there.When I was there the painting of temple was in progress so I didnt click picture of 12 shiv temple over there.Apart from these, there is a Lord krishna temple as well.What I loved most here is peace and cleanliness. You will feel totally divine here.While returning I went to Bally ghat Railway station (20₹) then opted local train to howrah (₹5) .

Its a beautiful place and its extremely well-organized. It has got a high security check and nothing is allowed inside the temples except wallet. There are counters to hand over stuff youre carrying. Inside the temple calmness prevails with an enchanting surrounding.

This is one of the world famous Temple in India. This temple is almost 200years old. Now adminstration gave a new look adding skywalk, decoration and different development works.I found a lot of difference between previous and present one.Though during covid there is less number of visitors still there is a fare crowd over there.

Place is good. But need to improve the shop and vendor policy

The age old temple made by Rani Rashmoni still holds back its serendipity its holy ambience...proper Covid rules are maintained over here as such no overcrowding except on any occasions but there can be que inside the main temple... management is also not bad... systems to keep your shoes and wallet safely is there inside the temple premises...Bhog is also available but only the coupons for bhog available mostly in the early morning... otherwise if anyone wants to eat bhog can go to Aadyapith Kali Mandir and math...there they can surely get bhog at a very cheap price and the coupons over there are available for a longer period of time

Now the temple is connected with metro so its really easy to reach there. The place is more clean its a pleasure to walk through the sky walk. Need some clean food stalls. The charges for keeping shoes bags and mobiles to be reduced.

I went there for tonsure ceremony of my daughter.

What a place & atmosphere besides the Ganges. Feeling awesome.

Love to visit this place. If you are a true devotee or just love visiting religions places, you can surely visit Dakshineswar Temple. There are so many shops and the place is also quite big. The skywalk has newly been introduced which is amazing. Proper maintenance of the place is taken care off.

It’s a fantastic place for the tourists except the extreme hot stone under their feet . My feet was burnt and got heat blisters🦶. The management should cover the hot stone in the summer season. The tourists should go there at early in the morning, otherwise hot stone may burn🔥 their feet . This temple is really big, beautiful, historical and sightly. The surroundings of this temple are really awesome 😎.

This heritage place is always special for Hindus. During our visit in July 2021, temple was being renovated. Covid protocols were properly maintained.

Must visit once in life.Dakshineswar Kali Temple is a Hindu navaratna temple located at Dakshineswar. Situated on the eastern bank of the Hooghly River, the presiding deity of the temple is Bhavatarini, a form of Parashakti Adya Kali, otherwise known as Adishakti Kalika.Parking available , clean place.

Beautiful place for worshipped Maa Kali. The main temple is under renovation. Painting and other works are under way. Its not much crowded except the morning and evening hours. Vaccination nor pcr certificates is not yet asked for. However on needs to wear a mask and be aware of social distancing. Very clean and well maintained temple. A must visit. Im not very sure if the commute via motor boat from to and from Belur Math is functional again.

Very neat and clean place, good behaviour of staff, maintained covid protocols nicely.

Today was much crowded one. As it was a holiday of 2nd Oct.

One of the cleanest & holiest Kali Temple in India. Must visit place in Kolkata.

Joy Maa Kali. This is a religious place for the hindus. Maa Dakshineswari resides here. One can sit by the ghats or banks of river Ganga and enjoy the nice view and the soothing wind. After the mandir darshan on the way back one dine into hing kachories along with potato curry in nearby eateries.

Holy place... The best systematic public management you can see here even in this pandemic era.

I loved this place going with my friends.

Rani rashmoni build this know as Dakshineswar Kali temple the time of priest Ram Krishna paramhans with beautiful Ganga ghat

Amazing... And very much good place

Reached the temple via the skywalk. It felt amazing.The temple area is so serene. Bhakti comes naturally. The place is so peaceful. Had Maas darshan. There are also two ghatsYou need to submit your phones, bags and shoes to go inside the temple area.I was filled with such bliss❤

I love to visit this temple again and again. So many shops are there. New skywalk is introduced for better control of crowd. Bath in river feels very peace but the water is not clean enough. Locker system is also available for purse, mobile and shoe.

Age old Temple behind ganges bring the inner peace.

Its one of the best tourist place. New overbridge got credited. There is a little bit jam on roadway under the bridge however metro rout is nice. Its clean and safe place.

Temple was very peaceful. Renovation work was going on when I have visited.

No words to describe the divine power of Goddess Kali. One can visit Vellore math via boat or ferry by crossing the divine Ganga river and experiencing the lush green environment of Dakhineshwar Kali Temple. Beware of the small shop owners at the skywalk bridge. They will say they havent eaten or havent had a single customer in a day. Theyll say words like that to make you purchase pooja mishti and mala from their shop at a very heavy price. Dont get fooled by their words. There are a lot of shops at the end of the skywalk on temple premises. Where you can bargain also for the price.

Famous temple 🛕 situated in Dakhineswar in front of Ganga river. Walking distance from Dakhineswar railway station ( sealdah to dankuni route). For public to visit for puja in morning 6am to 12 pm and evening 3pm to 7pm in this pandemic situation. Bhog also available in Temple counter. For bhog collect paid cupon before 9 am from counter. Mobile, bags, camera, shoes etc. are not allowed inside the main temple. A clock room (baggage counter) available inside. Puja item shop available inside the temple, u also put your luggage here where you buy puja materials. Puja thali is available from 21 to 1000 rupees. Car parking in available inside the temple. Puja accessories, statue, fast food shop also available inside the temple.

Been there several times but everytime it feels more refreshing, soothing and the breeze of river Ganges calms your vacillating mind. A dip in the holy river feels like getting rid of all existing negativity, hesitation and absurdity.And the moment you make your intangible connection with the mother goddess it shall fill you up with an inexorable hopefulness, positivity and obligation.

Its the best place in kolkata.

Amazing place. Spirituality flows in air. And night views are just amazing.Temple is closed in afternoon around 2 to 4 PM. So avoid visiting at that time.

Always find mental peace on visiting this place... The tranquil face of the Bhabatarini Maas idol pacifies your mind and fills one with divine calmness..

Very clean and well maintained place of worship. Managed very efficiently. Well-connected through road, metro rail and suburban rail.

Too much useless covid restrictions implied.Proper social distancing is not maintained.Evening visiting time is from 3:30pm - 8:00pm.There was a long queue of devotees which could have been avoided with proper management of the Darshan.The parking charges are too high.

Must visit temple if you are in Kolkata. The temple is beautiful, you can sit for hours and look at people and never get bored. The riverside is beautiful too, especially during sunset. Trains and metros connect it to Kolkata so going here is not at all painstaking.

Good place....particularly early in the morning is very peaceful

This is a holy place for hindu devotees. Rani Rasmoni established this temple . Thousands of devotees come here to worship Maa Kali everyday.

Very big and beautiful temple.Nice place to visit with friends and family.

Temple has its own values to the religious faith and it is just awesome

This place is so beautiful, really amazing but too crowded. Visited this place in the month of Feb and the place was too crowded, no social distancing but they are providing hand sanitizer everywhere. And i will also request everyone to visit this place on winter because if you visit on summer, your foot will burned. When i visited my foot burned and not able to walk for 1 day (yes thats funny) but to be honest, this place is must visit, very beautiful

Great place of mahakali temple. once time life must visit to that place.

Clean, Peaceful, Properly organised, Systematic and above all follows Covid-19 guide lines.

Great place to enjoy.

Very nice placeIt is very neat & clean

Havenly place with blessings of Maa Bhavatarini.

Peaceful, spacious, full of serenity. Though theres a lot of crowd still one cant miss the charm of this sublime place.

Peaceful place ❤️❤️

I try to come to this temple every year. A very clean temple. Rule discipline is very nice. The best part is that no phone is allowed here.People can worship with a good mind. It is not everyones job to just take selfies.

New norms of covid 19 has been practicing in a good way but only outside the Devalaya. Inside the main Mandir everyone is gathering in such a way that there is no covid situation..

One of the devotional places of Bengal. But they organized so well and maintained it so well that you go for worship peaceful. No extra money will gonna charged by any 3rd person unlike some other temples. So I feel good about the system they have inside the temple.

Visit the place on winter days and if youre visiting on summertime Try to go in morning or after sunset.. opening time is 6am and closing time is 8pm

Very good place, hygienic.Maintained all covid protocols.

Although Dakshineswar Kali Temple is a Hindu navaratna temple but It is also known as a sacred pilgrimage site of Hindu religion. There are so many shops of place. As it is situated by the bank of Hugly (Ganga) river, you can take a bath known as Ganga Snan. There you have to maintain their some restrictions also.Lockers are available to keep Your Cell phone, Camera, purse and shoes. I really love the holy place.

Only sweet, fruit and saree chunni etc is allowed inside temple. Flowers, Mala etc is not allowed due to pandemic

Dakhineswar Kali Mandir is a famous temple near Dunlap, Kolkata.One of Indias most famous shrine located on the banks of Hooghly river in North-Kolkata. If you are ever in Kolkata then I recommend you to visit this Hindu temple devoted to Goddess Kali. I almost spend a whole day their and believe me its the one of the favorite days of mine.

One of the best worshipping place and awesome environment there, it is a great and historical land of God and goddess.

I always come here whenever I visit kolkata this is the holy place of godess kali , situated at the banks of hoogly river it gives you a peace of mind , and spiritual presence of maa kali 🙏

Very peaceful place. People maintain queue. Good place to offer prayers.

Nice place to spend some spiritual time at the side of the holy Ganga.

Was there with one of my friend before Ganesh chaturthi. Nice place 🙏🏻🙏🏻🌺🌺

Very Pleasant place, no crowd during closing hours, had darshan calmly. Easy parking and clock room facilities

Jai Maa Kali....Great templePride of BengalPride of KolkataThere is not only Kali temple inside but ,there are 12 - 14 Shiva Temples. Each with a different name of Lord Shiva.Also there is a Narayan Temple ,RadhaKrishna Temple ,A Jagganath Temple and Of course Maa Kali Temple.You have to leave your shoes and phones out side the temple in two different counters .There are small shops or stores for taking Puja samagris , also small hotels for eating. Everything is outside. You can get only the temples inside. You would be checked and sanitized well before going into the temple area

My experience was great being there although mobile phones are not allowed inside the main premises of the temple but I recommend everyone should visit this temple once...

I recently visited hereThere is amazing Beauty and scenery .Different types of structure in temple wall.One pond on temple campus .Beside the the temple hugli river flow own way .inside the temple amazing views. This palace famous for fullfill ours wish .West Bengal government made skywalk bridge station to kali temple . A fully enjoyable and spiritual palaces.

Nice, neat temple complex. Adequate parking. Dont go during lunch hours, its closed then. Also the floor gets awfully hot during day, so try and visit in the morning or late evening. The view is fantastic.

Must visit place. After having metro station its much easier and comfortable to travel there. Walking distance from metro, pleasent and peaceful. I just hated that we had to submit our Mobiles before entering the temple compound. Overall great experience 🙂

It is open in this pandemic, but must be renovated quickly

The system is good but it feels something business way. The gate closed within 12.01 pm. Many people come here from far way to visit the dev-devi. But they get just some moments. Also people come here for show off not for realizing GOD. The temple have a old history.

Best discipline followed here in worship. Best religious place in North/East India.

Superb place and the whole trip wi cost you less than 150rs. Way cheaper than temples in other parts of India. Photography is not allowed inside,but I sneaked in my phone as it was a special day. Very well managed place and the tag line should be KOLKATA IS FOR ALL.

I love this place 🥰😍

Dakshineswar Kali temple is my most of times visited place in kolkata. Maa Dakshineswari also known by Maa Bhabatarini is always blessings us like mother. The temple is situated beside the holy Ganga river. The atmosphere is so peaceful in temple area. people can easily enter in temple without any vip line.we also visit the Swami Ramkrishna Paramhans House in temple. Really feeling blessed everytime visit there.

I just love the place 😍 .Every time I go there I am not feeling like coming back . ❤️

Holly place,must visit with loved ones. Soothing Ganga river view will refresh the soul.Little crowdy but early morning visiting hours are mostly less crowded.

Beautiful and scenic place. Huge parking space for 4 wheelers charging Rs25 per hour. Have to submit mobile,bags and shoes before entering temple. Rs 3 per shoe,per bag,per mobile respectively.Huge space inside, many Shiv mandirs, radha Krishna Mandir, Jagannath Mandir and mainly Maa Bhavatarini (Kali). Devotional place and full of peace.Very systematic darshan of Maa with tight security. Have gone through a huge change in traffic control. Maintenance is top notch.

Really commendable work by the Government on beautification of Dakshineswar Temple. Extremely impressive. Thanks a lot. We enjoyed the visit after a couple of years. Definitely much better than earlier.

Its divine.
