Bambleshwari Temple, Hindu temple in Dongargarh, India

Bambleshwari Temple is a Hindu shrine on a hilltop in Dongargarh, Chhattisgarh state. The main hall housing the goddess sits at the summit and can be reached by a long stone stairway or a cable car running from the plain below.

The shrine was built more than two millennia ago when King Virsen received a son after prayers to Shiva and Durga. Later rulers and pilgrims ensured the site remained active and expanded over time.

The goddess is worshipped here as Bamleshwari, a form of Bagulamukhi, and the hill shrine is held by people across Chhattisgarh as a place of pilgrimage. During the Navratris of Kavar and Chaitra, devotees light the Jyoti Kalash. The temple's operation was handed to the Bamleshwari Trust Committee in 1964 by Virendra Bahadur Singh, former ruler of Khairagarh.

Entry is free, and visitors choose between climbing the steps or taking the cable car. Those who opt for the stairs should bring water and go early in the morning or after sunset, when it is cooler.

The second shrine on the plain is called Chhotti Bambleshwari, meaning the "small" Bambleshwari, while the hilltop temple is Badi Bambleshwari, the "great" one. It stands about half a kilometre from the main temple complex. The hilltop can also be reached by a ropeway, the only one in Chhattisgarh.
