UDAIPUR, Oct 9 (TIWN) : Udaipur city which is better known as the "city of temple" holds an ancient temple here, dedicated in the name of Goddess Durga. This temple however historically known as Hari Mandir.
The temple is taken care by a particular family namely Deb Bari since kings’ era. Apart from Durga Puja, the temple is dedicated more for Basanti puja.
A temple with difference can be seen on the south bank of Gomati (at the northeastern side of Jagannath Dighi).
Nevertheless, as far as embellishment on the temple surface is concerned, it'll definitely stand independent of other temples in Udaipur.
Floral-ornamentation was a feature on the wall of the core-chamber. Terracotta images of six armed Devi and figure mounted on lion are some worth mention. No other temple at Udaipur features terracotta.
However, on the day of Maha Ashtami people thronged to worship Devi Durga, who is just another formation of Devi Basanti.
