Yogmaya Neupane

Yogmaya Neupane is a Hindu temple in the Mehrauli district of Delhi, India, displaying stone sculptures and ornate carvings within its walls. The architecture combines elements from different epochs of Indian building tradition.

The temple was established after the Mahabharata war and remains the only religious building in this area used continuously since before the Sultanate. Over the centuries the site experienced changes under shifting rulers.

The temple carries the name of a goddess from Hindu tradition and draws believers who perform rituals and present offerings here. The community uses the space for prayers and ceremonies handed down through centuries.

The temple sits near the Qutb complex and offers parking spaces along with drinking water stations for visitors. It stays open throughout the year and can be reached on foot from the main roads in the neighborhood.

A long room inside was intended for conversion into a mosque during the reign of Aurangzeb but those plans never came to pass. Today the room serves to store food distributed to worshippers.
