Dhekiakhowa Bornamghar, Vaishnavite temple in Jorhat district, India

The Dhekiakhowa Bornamghar extends across 13 bighas of land, featuring multiple religious structures and a central worship hall for devotional gatherings.

Madhavadeva, the principal disciple of saint Srimanta Sankaradeva, established this religious center in 1528 after receiving hospitality from a local village woman.

The temple hosts numerous religious festivals throughout the year, including Paal Naam, Raas Lila, and celebrations of Srimanta Sankardeva's birth anniversary.

The temple stands 15 kilometers east of Jorhat city and visitors can reach it by taking state buses or rental cars from Jorhat Airport.

An earthen lamp within the temple premises has maintained its flame continuously for 485 years, with priests regularly adding mustard oil.
