Fullara, Sacred temple complex in Birbhum district, India.
Fullara is a religious site in Birbhum district built around a large stone structure said to represent a goddess, located near the Ishani River in Dakshindihi village. The complex serves pilgrims who come for ceremonies and prayer throughout the year.
According to Hindu texts, the site marks where part of a goddess fell as described in ancient scripture. This event shaped worship practices here and has drawn pilgrims for centuries.
The site hosts ceremonies throughout the year that shape how visitors experience this place, from weddings to ritual ear piercing and shared communal meals. These practices connect people to the temple's spiritual purpose in tangible ways.
The site has drinking water, eating options, restrooms, and shops selling religious items for visitors. The nearest railway station at Bolpur Santiniketan provides convenient access for those traveling by train.
Rather than traditional carved divine images, the sanctuary holds only a simple stone form at its center. This stark approach sets it apart from most other religious structures found in the region.
