It's an okeish place.. partly due to the fact that I have never seen a temple where the priest is rejecting donations because the offering is too low for his statue ( honestly I was shocked at seeing the level of his greediness). 50-100 rs are definitely smaller for him. Pretty much a mismanaged temple. The way to this temple is narrow and you might find a lot of difficulty in reaching there. Given the historic status ofbthe temple, it should be managed well.

Small temple is kept neatly and the Pandit patiently have Prasad. Even during Navrarta days there was less people and we could have nice Darshan.
But the adjoining area stink.

Apart from being one of the 51 Shaktipeeth, Badi Patandevi is also the presiding deity of ancient Patliputra or present day Patna city.
Originally named as Maa Sarvanand Kari Patneshwari it was later simplified as बड़ी पटनदेवी. As old Patliputra-city  is among the oldest  continuously inhabited places on earth, being in existence since 490 BCE, this temple also among the oldest temples in the Magadh region.

Badinpatan devi temple is so peaceful place. Initially when thought to visit the temple, didn't know that the temple was the Shaktipeeth. But later found the place is a SHAKTIPEETH where Devi sati's left thigh was fallen.

Since the temple is located inside the city and the temple is not famous as other shaktipeeth temples, that's the reason there was not crowd at all except only 7-10 people.

But now the temple trust is trying to expand the temple, so the efforts are in progress.

Request all Hindu brothers and sisters to contribute to the expansion of the temple.

Whenever, you go to Patna, it's a must visit place.

The temple in itself it good and religious, elders would love to visit this temple but the thing is, there isnt a proper route to visit the temple or should i say its too much in the interior. Its extremely difficult to get there and if you're driving there, its just too much of a hassle but it doesn't matter because its great to visit Badi Patan Devi Temple in the end and its all worth it if you're religious person.

Badi Patan Devi is one of the most popular temple in our city Patna. Lakhs of people come in every special days like Dusshera, New Year. There will be too much dense on these days but any other days there is normal. What i don't like is the charge of goods in the temple is too much high than i expected. Also, some workers who work there is bit kind of rude. Change your behavior those who work rudly because you are working at Mata's temple and if you continue with your rude behavior then don't expect our behaviour. Else this temple is all good. You can take blessings from Maa here.
