We were in varanasi and decided to go at shree Durga Mata temple. And it was right decision. This is compact and beautiful temple coloured totally red. Varanasi is a city of temples and this is one of the best place to visit in varanasi.When you entered into this temple people gives you water to wash your hands. It feels holy. It has a small lake beside this temple but not open for people.Reflection of this temple in water looks extraordinary.
Durgakund Temple❤️This Temple also known as Durga Kund Mandir, it is one of the most famous temples in the city of Varanasi. This temple is dedicated to the Maa Durga. There is a pond adjacent to the temple itself, which further enhances the beauty of this red temple.Roads to the temple are always in traffic. But the good thing that you can also visit tulsi manas mandir, sankatmochan mandir, tridev mandir which are around 400 to 500 m from the temple.
One of the most famous Maa Durga Temple in Varanasi, there is a kund (pond) behind this temple. Thats why this area is known as Durga Kund. Its little crowded by bhaktas in Navaratri and Friday. It has been developed nicely by the administration. They have made sitting arrangements near the kund. There are lightnings at evening which add on at its beauty.
Richly carved temple of Eighteenth century dedicated to Maa Durga, goddess of war.The temple is inhabited by many hundreds monkeys which attract photographers misnaming it monkey temple.You can go here from Varanasi Railway Station, Kashi Railway Station, Mughal Sarai Railway Station. The aarti is too much holy, colourful.This huge durga mandir is located on South of the Kashi and on the north of the Durgakund. All over the India many peoples gathered here to see the temple and the durga maa.

A beautiful temple with its own pond ( kund) in the premise. The vibrant red and golden colours are striking and stand tall against the grey winter evening sky. The temple is on a busy road and so crowded in terms of people and vehicles. Once inside, its peaceful and calming. The local rickshaw guys know the place and will drop you there. If you have the time then sit on the platforms built around the pond and enjoy the peace amidst a chaotic hustle bustle.

Vibrant place. Actually its a temple of Goddess Drugs which used to be crowded by many monkeys, so also known as monkey temple in many books and on internet also. But the Priests prefer it to be called Durga temple only. So they tried to remove monkeys and were partly successful also. So now not so many monkeys are visible around it.

Durga Mandir,also known as Durga Kund Mandir and Durga Temple, is one of the most famous temples in the holy city of Varanasi. This temple has great religious importance in Hinduism and is dedicated to the Maa Durga. Durga Mandir was constructed in 18th century by Bengali Maharani (Bengali Queen).Durga Mandir was constructed in 18th century by Bengali Maharani. The temple is dedicated to the Goddess Durga. Next to the temple, is a kund (pond) which was earlier connected to the river Ganges. It is believed that the existing icon of the goddess was not made by a man but appeared on its own in the temple.In adhyaya (chapter) 23 of the Devi-Bhagavata Purana, this temples origin is explained. As per the text, Kashi Naresh (king of Varanasi) called for a Swayamvar for his daughter Sashikalas marriage. The King later learnt that the princess was in love with vanvasiprince Sudarshan. So Kashi Naresh got his daughter secretly married to the prince. When the other Kings (who were invited for Swayamvar) got to know about the marriage, they got angry and went on war with Kashi Naresh. Sudarshan then offered prayers to Durga, who came on a lion and fought the war for Kashi Naresh and Sudarshan. After the war, Kashi Naresh pleaded to Durga to protect Varanasi and with that belief, this temple was constructed.Durga Mandir was constructed in the 18th century (exact date of construction not known) by a Bengali Maharani - Rani Bhabani of Natore. (Bengali queen). The temple was built in North Indian Nagara style of architecture. The temple is painted red with ochre to match the colours of the central icon of Durga, the goddess of strength and power. Inside the temple, lots of elaborately carved and engraved stones can be found. The temple is made up of many small sikharasconjoined together.

It is a very sacred temple.....when i was there that movent was very happy.....love it..jai mata di.
A decent place for paying a visit to godess durgaa. The area is quite good but needs a bit maintenance as the water body in there stinks of dead fishes and nothing is actually done to it, may be because its a place of worship or whatever, but it really needs to be taken care of, otherwise the place is quite soothing and provokes the inner peace, if one is looking for it. You get no parking space in and around there, but can get the floral garlands and other things which are required for the worship.
One of my best Holi place in Varanasi India.
One of the oldest and must visit temples in Varanasi.
According to legends this old Durga Ji temple protects Varanasi from demons. Good place of relaxing time.

Maa Durga Hindu Temple,Its amazing ,nice and historical place in Varanasi. kindly visit and feel spirituality...Jai Mata Di.
A beautiful temple made up of red stone. Its a bit crowdy though but you will feel good visiting this place. Take the blessings of Maa durga. Also known as Durgakund temple, this place offers you clean drinking water. When entering the temple, you will have to take out your slippers and shoes for which you will be charged Rs. 2 to keep it securely.Check out some of the pictures I have added.
The very thing youll notice about the temple is the striking red colour. The temple itself is a calm and quiet area but something, a powerful presence still lingers amongst the temple grounds. The power maybe of Maa Durga herself or of the chanting of the devotees, who knows. The temple area is quiet clean and spotless. One can spend up to 30 mins quite easily here.
A wonderful place to search for your soul. Must visit in Kashi.
One of the ancient temples of Maa Durga in Varanasi followed by a beautiful artificial lake with fountains .
Amazing...
Very good and crowded place to be. Try to go with auto or toto
Good place to visit complete temple fully coloured with red colour bricks, and a beautiful pond near the temple.
