Sugandha Shaktipeeth, Hindu temple in Shikarpur village, Barisal, Bangladesh
The Sugandha Shaktipeeth temple stands on the banks of the Sunanda River, 21 kilometers from Barisal City, featuring detailed sculptures on its outer walls.
The temple marks the location where, according to Sanskrit texts, the nose of goddess Sati fell after Lord Vishnu divided her body with the Sudarshan Chakra.
Devotees from across the subcontinent gather at this temple to worship goddess Sunanda and Lord Shiva, known here as Traimbak, through traditional ceremonies.
The temple maintains daily operations from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with visitors requiring prior arrangements through agents in Barisal for transportation and access.
Despite traditional Hindu architectural principles advising against temple shadows on flowing water, this structure casts its reflection upon the Sunanda River.
