Gayatri Shaktipeeth Shree Chamunda Mata Temple

Temple devoted to Chamunda Devi Mata. Situated at Last corner of Mehrangarh fort . Back side location of Jodhpur city really amazing, here you can see blue houses view from the top.

Mehrangarh (which is the gateway to the Gayatri Shaktipeeth Shri Chamunda Mata temple) is a very beautiful and well maintained fort overlooking the whole of Jodhpur and showing a lot of the city’s history.

After paying the entrance fee you’ll be let in to the fort. A ticket for foreigners is ₹600 (or ₹400 for students) and includes an audio tour, unfortunately the device doesn’t come with headphones and you’ll have to walk around holding it against your ear for a few hours.

The museum is beautiful, clean and really well maintained, especially if you compare it to other museums and exhibition rooms in India. The fort it self is an architectural masterpiece, especially considering the time it was build.

After visiting the fort and the museum you can make your way true the garden and visit the temple, which will give you the absolute best view on the blue city.

The Chamunda Mata Devi temple is situated in the last corner of Mehrangarh fort. The devotees come here in large numbers and follow the goddess with utmost devotion. The blue houses of jodhpur are clearly visible from here and look stellar in the backdrop.

Great point in the fort with a temple. Maintained properly by care takers.

Navratri Festive seasons shows best decorations and enthusiasm from public

Chamunda Mataji Temple is located at the southern end of the Mehrangarh Fort in Jodhpur. The idol of Devi Chamunda Mataji was brought to the fort in the year 1460 by Rao Jodha as the goddess was his favourite. The idol was earlier based at Mandore. Soon after the idol was installed in the famous temple in Mehrangarh Fort, that was dedicated to Devi Chamunda Mataji. Even in the current times the royal families of Rajas and the Maharajas considers Devi Chamunda Mataji as the ‘Isht Devi” or the adopted goddess of their families. Devi Chamunda Mataji is a deity who is popularly worshiped even by the common people of Jodhpur. The occasion of Dussehra sees a huge mass of devotees who visits this fort and the temple offering prayers

CHAMUNDA MATAJI TEMPLE
Chamunda Mataji was Rao Jodha’s favourite goddess and so her idol was bought to the Mehrangarh Fort. Thus, the fort became a place of worship and was turned into a temple. Since then, locals have followed the culture of worshipping Chamunda Mata. In fact, till date, the goddess remains the Isht Devi (the adopted goddess) of Maharajas and the royal family.

My 5 star rating not for the temple... Since I didn't enter to the temple, but the view was awesome, sunset and blue houses are awesome, apart from all other city view and sunset points this is the best and most of us didn't aware about this one, spent time for sunset you will feel what I meant
