It was founded by Rani Rashmoni following a dream she had when she was about to start on her pilgrimage to Benaras. We will visit the nine-spired Kali Temple in the centre of the main courtyard. The idol of Kali is a basalt figure and looks mesmerising with its gold brocade covering. Our guide will tell you the story of how this place played an important role in India’s Independence.

The spiritual connection to Kolkata and Hinduism.

Published on Feb, 2025

The guide and the driver were very knowledgeable, personable, and communicated relevant information very well. Navigating the Kolkata traffic during office hours was challenging, and we had to take alternative routes. Despite all these issues, the temple visits were satisfying and peaceful. The guide provided a lot of background information and history. His knowledge was appreciated. Thank you very much!

Religion, history and context

Published on Oct, 2023

Our guide Anirban was great. We travelled around the city seeing several sites. The various sites were all very interesting and Anirban added additional context and connections so we came away with a greater understanding of how the religions of the area relate to the history and development in the region. Recommend! Even in monsoon!!

Knowledgeable guide

My guide Anirban was very knowledgeable. Despite the really hot and humid weather, the tour was really good. It was nice to see a variety of temples and other parts of Kolkata on the drive between them.
