DEOPANI Temple

Pilgrimage tour of DEOPANI Temple in Karbi Anglong, Assam

On the 15th June 2016 ,I along with family members specially my mother started for DEOPANI Mandir ( Temple), a scared place in the hill dist. of Karbi Anglong. To reach Deopani from Jorhat we surpassed Golghat and Silonijan area and it took around 2.30 hrs to reach there by our  private car. Public transport takes around 4 hours to reach Deopani. Buses ply  regularly between Golaghat to Bokajan/Dimapur one can drop at Deopani to reach Temple.
Deopani Temple where Goddess Durga is worshipped is situated in lush green environment  amid a Tea garden.

Mandir (Temple) is having very old pond and it is full of Tortoise and other fish species. Local people have very high respect and visits this place for wishes. It is having a very big tree on which worshippers tie a red ribbon and asks for a wish and when their wish is fulfilled this ribbon will be untied from this tree.During the festival of DURGA  Puja ( around October ) a mela ( fair) takes place here and it is a annual attraction for the locals from near by areas and other parts of North East.
