DELHI



We finish our trip in the capital by the visit of the

Chattarpur Mandir

a beautiful and very popular temple in Delhi.


It is situated just 4 km from the Tower Qutub Minar in the Mehrauli area. Devotees come from all over Delhi to pay homage to the deities in the temple. Prayers are conducted 24 hours a day!!!!!!!


Inside, all the shrines are built from white marble. It's a large complex in which there're also many temples dedicated to various God and Goddesses like Vishnu, Ganesh,Lakhsmi and Shiva. But the main shrine is dedicated to the Goddess Durga (photo)



On Durga Puja , a religious indian festival, we can see a crowd of people coming and waiting for their turn to ask for the blessings of Durga.

One interesting detail is left to say about it:

According to a popular belief, if you tie a thread in the tree inside the complex, it'll fulfill your dreams!!! .
Let's see if it'll work for you .......... !!!
