Tara Tarini Temple

Located on Tara Tarini Hill near the Rushikulya River, this temple features two stone statues adorned with gold and silver ornaments representing the twin deities.

The temple dates back to ancient times and stands as one of the 52 Shakti Peethas, sacred sites where parts of Goddess Sati's body are said to have fallen.

During the month of Chaitra, thousands of devotees gather at the temple every Tuesday to participate in ceremonies and seek blessings from the twin goddesses.

The temple remains open from 5 AM to 10 PM daily, with direct road connections from Brahmapur city located 30 kilometers away.

The temple holds distinction as one of only four Tantra Peethas in India, where devotees practice specialized forms of worship and meditation techniques.
