Fourteen Goddess Temple

 

Fourteen Goddess Temple is located about 14 kilometres from Agartala in an area known as Old Agartala. In response to the ongoing conflict with Shamser Gazi, Maharaja Krishna Manikya relocated the capital from Udaipur to Old Agartala. It remained the capital until it was relocated to Agartala. Every year, during the month of July, a Kharchi festival is held at the revered 14 goddess shrine, and hundreds of pilgrims and devotees attend. According to local legend, anyone who visits the Tripura Fourteen Goddess Temple once will return to Agartala fourteen times.
