    An ancient temple dedicated to the worship of the Goddess Kali. Legend says that this temple exists since the time of the Pandavas. This temple is believed by the faithful to have immense power and that the Goddess blesses even the sinners who come here to seek absolution for their sins. There is a Gurudwara also inside the complex, whose origins are also quite ancient.

    Jai Mata Di 🙏 Shri Kalka maa Mandir is dedicated to goddess Kalka or Kali, an incarnation of Durga. You should read the story of Kalka maa which destroyed Mahishasur, Chand-Munda, Shumbha-Nishumbha. Built by pandavas, this place is a must visit for all the people who need Maa's grace. She blesses even the sinful souls if they offer themselves to her. You must visit this temple if you are in kalka town. Note - There is gurudwara inside the temple. Gurudwara Pathsahi Pahali (where Gurujanak ji gave his first seekh to the people about integrity, love, grace. Waheguru 🙏❤️

    This is a very well known place, Maa Kali is present in Pindi form. Maa fulfills all the wishes of devotees reaching the temple. There is a parking problem so it is good to reach here early in the morning.

  • 5/5 Indaneel S. 10 months ago on Google
    Divine place. Try to reach the place via the highway as the road coming from the city is congested and goes through a market. Ample free space on the roadside outside the temple gate, however on weekends you have be Lucky to find a spot near to the gate. Though even on a weekend I did not get much rush. 10-15 mins all it took in the queue.

  • 5/5 Vaibhav K. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the oldest temples in my knowledge. The surrounding areas of Kalka, people host Kalka mata flags on their rooftop. My relatives lives nearby, so I have been visiting from delhi since childhood. Parking is roadside and could be difficult to find of festival days. It has slope for wheelchair accessibility but not easy to access inside area of temple by wheelchair. The adjacent gurudwara entrance has recently opened from the kalka temple main entrance. You can find both sikh and hindus visiting temple and gurudwara. Place is usually guarded with police constables at entrance. A local liquor shop has opened a few metres away on roadise parking area. Liquor shops should not have been allowed in the vicinity of places of worship.
