Religious Significance

It is said that a bangle seller was passing by a jungle when he saw a beautiful girl sitting on a rock, who asked him for a pair of bangles. When the bangle seller asked money for the bangles, the girl directed him to the king of the area. And interestingly the king too had a dream in which the Goddess asked the King to pay for the bangles to the bangle seller. On coming to know that his dream was a reality the king requested the Goddess to once again appear before him. It is said that the Goddess raised her bangle laden arms from within the river. It is also said that the mother’s footprint imprints are still visible in the temple premises.The King then built a temple around the rock on which the Goddess had initially appeared and since then scores of people have been thronging the area to pay their respects and seek the blessings of the Goddess.

History

Kalyaneshwari is a 500-year-old center, this Hindu temple was originally constructed by Maharaja Hari Gupt and this temple was made over by king of Panchkota after five years of construction.
