• Durga Mata Mandir:

Durga temple, also known as the Monkey Temple (because of the presence of a huge number of monkeys), is situated in Durga Kund, Varanasi. The temple is dedicated to the goddess Durga. It was built in the 18th century.

The statue of Goddess Durga is not human-made; it appeared on its own in the temple. Millions of Hindu devotees go to the Durga temple on Navratri and other propitious occasions and pray to the Goddess Durga to complete their wishes.

• Sankat Mochan Hanuman Mandir:

It is believed that the temple has been built on the very spot where Tulsidas had a vision of Hanuman. This temple has the unique distinction of having Lord Hanuman facing his Lord Ram, whom he worshipped with selfless devotion.

• Baba Kaal Bhairav Temple:

Kaal Bhairav is believed to be the Kotwal (Chief police officer) of Creation; everyone who wants to exist in Creation(even if Gods) needs to take his permission to exist. He is also believed to be the Kotwal of “Sati pind” and without his permission, no one can touch the “Sati pind”. Kaal Bhairav protects the devotees from all the problems.
