Located on the banks of Naini Lake, the Naina Devi Temple is considered as one of the most revered temples of India, as well as one of the top tourist spots in Nainital. Of the fifty-one Shakti-Peethas that are spread throughout our country, this temple is believed to be one of them, making it a popular choice for several devotees from all over India. According to beliefs, the temple is built on the land where Devi Sati\u2019s eyes had fallen. The word \u201cNaina ” means \u201ceye\u201d and as it indicates, is dedicated to Goddess Sati\u2019s eyes.<\/p>\n

Though this enchanting structure has a sad past, where it was constructed on the lake\u2019s upper edge in the 15th century and then destroyed by a landslide in 1880, it continues to be a place of serenity, peace, and calmness. Synonymous to Goddess Sati\u2019s eyes, the word \u201cNaina\u201d resonates amongst the hundreds of devotees as well as tourists who visit this temple every month. Upon crossing the main entrance, visitors are greeted by a Peepal tree on the left, and the idols of Lord Ganesh and Hanuman on the right.<\/p>\n
