Nearby Attractions from Kamakhya Temple
Kamakhya Temple, located atop Nilachal Hill in Guwahati, Assam, is one of the most revered Hindu temples dedicated to Goddess Kamakhya. It is a significant Shakti Peetha and a prominent pilgrimage site for devotees of Shakti worship. Unlike most temples, Kamakhya does not house an idol; instead, it enshrines a natural rock formation representing the goddess's yoni (womb), symbolizing feminine energy and creation.
The temple is known for its unique rituals, including the famous Ambubachi Mela, which celebrates the annual menstruation of the goddess. Pilgrims, Tantric practitioners, and spiritual seekers visit Kamakhya Temple year-round to seek divine blessings and experience its mystical aura.
