Chamunda Bhagwati Temple, Naggar

Chamunda Bhagwati Temple, located at the village of Nishala, 4 km from Naggar, is dedicated to Chamunda Bhagwati. The goddess is considered to be one of the seven Matrikas or mother goddesses. She is also known as one of the chief Yoginis, a group of sixty-four or eighty-one tantric goddesses, who are attendants of the warrior goddess Durga.

The name, Chamunda is a combination of Chanda and Munda, two monsters who Chamunda killed. The area where the temple is located is a popular site for Bollywood film shootings because of its picturesque surroundings.
