Hanseswari Temple

One of the best Peaceful place in Hooghly, west bengal. I get very positive vibrations each time i visit this place, it calms my mind.

Very nice temple. The place is also good. Road connectivity is very good. I must say, it is well maintained. "Bolidaan Pratha" is not there now. You can have "Prasaad" if you want. It costs Rs. 50 per packet. After covid they have introduced packet system. Earlier there was sit and eat system with temple persons serving. Now you can open the packet and eat there. If you want, you can take it to your home also. Prosaad ticket closed between 10: 30-11AM depending upon the rush. One hour is enough. There is not much to do except puja.

Hanseswari Temple is a significant Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Kali. It is known for its architectural beauty and historical importance.

A different feeling arose when I first laid eyes on this temple. From the structure of the temple to the architectural craftsmanship is of a different level. There is a magnificent pratima of Maa Kali and this is the main attraction of the temple. The environment of the temple is also very beautiful, various green trees are planted around, although there is no permission to go there but still it is also nice to see. Not to mention some things, the behavior of the people taking care of the temple here is very good. Photographs of the main idol of the temple are allowed, but selfies cannot be taken in front of the idol which is not a bad thing. The temple is open from 10 am to 2 pm and from 4 pm to 7 pm. I feel lucky to come to the temple. If you don't come here, you won't understand the value here. Apart from this, various items for worship are easily available around the temple. Finally, I will say one thing.and that is "JAY MAA KALI".

A good weekend or holiday destination with family. Puja items are available there. Visit the temple, offer Puja and enjoy the beautiful place. Selfies inside the temple are not allowed but one can capture a picture of the idol. Shoes need to be kept outside of the temple premises with minimal charges.

মায়ের মন্দির সম্পর্কে আমি আর কি বলবো! সকল কে মন্দির দেখার আমন্ত্রণ জানাই। আমার জীবনের ২২ টা বছর ওই বাঁশবেড়িয়া তে ই কেটেছে। অসাধারণ ছিল সেই দিন গুলো। আর মায়ের মন্দির ছিল আমাদের আনন্দের ঠিকানা।

A very beautiful temple which, somehow resembles Cathedral of St Basil in Moscow. Woodworks and brickwork/concrete have been used in this structure very nicely. But if you notice carefully, you will find that the temple is not in well maintained condition. There may be some reasons as it is private property of Bansberia zaminders. When fresh painting works are done, it looks just awesome! Two wheeler paid parking is there before entry gate where you can keep your shoes also for safe keeping. There is no entry fee for visiting this place. It is near Kalyani -Triveni river bridge and temple top is visible from there. A Terracotta temple adjuscent to this, is an added attraction.

Maa Kali is worshiped in Hanseswari temple. Famous area. Car bike parking available. If you want to visit the temple in the evening then you can enjoy this place

Good historic structure and serene place to be in with green garden & big complex area. A place to be in.

এই মন্দির খুবপ্রাচীন মন্দির। আর্কিওলজিকাল সার্ভে অফ বেঙ্গল দ্বারা সংরক্ষিত এই মন্দির । এখানে আরো একটি প্রাচীন টেরাকোটার মন্দির যা অনন্ত বাসুদেবের মন্দির নামে বিখ্যাত।
রাজা নৃসিংহদেব ১৭৯৯ খ্রীঃ এই মন্দির তাঁর মা হংসেশ্বরী দেবীর নামে শুরু করেন। তাঁর মৃত্যুর পর ১৮১৪খ্রীঃ তাঁর বিধবা পত্নী রাণী শংকরী এই মন্দির নির্মান সম্পন্ন করেন। এই মন্দিরে তেরোটি রত্ন ও মিনার প্রতিটি প্রস্ফুটিত পদ্মের ন্যায় নির্মিত। মন্দিরের গর্ভগৃহের উচ্চতা ৭০ফুট গোলাকার বেদীর ওপর পাথরের নির্মিত শায়িত শিব মূর্তির নাভি থেকে উদ্গত প্রস্ফুটিত পদ্মের ওপর দেবী হংসেশ্বরীর মূর্তি নিম কাঠ দ্বারা নির্মিত।

হংসেশ্বরী মন্দিরের অনুরূপ আর কোন মন্দির বাংলায় নেই।তান্ত্রিক যোগসাধনার প্রত্যক্ষ স্থাপত্য রূপ হল এই মন্দির। দীপান্বিতা অমাবস্যায় তান্ত্রিক মতে দেবীর পূজা হয়। সকাল দশটার মধ্যে পৌছে ভোগের টিকিট কাটলে ৪০ টাকায় এখানে ভোগ পাবেন।
কলকাতার কাছে পিঠে এক দিনের ভ্রমণ হিসাবে হংসেশ্বরী উল্লেখ যোগ্য।

The structure of the temple of Hangseswari is wonderfully unique and awesome. Historical place of Bansberia formarly named as Bangsobati, that was an important place of the rulers of that time.

Hangseswari temple is a Hindu ratna temple located in the town of Bansberia at Hooghly District, West Bengal, India. The presiding deity of the temple is Hangseswari, a form of Maa adi parashakti jagatjanani dakshina Kali in Hindu mythology.

Very well maintained, neat and clean place. It's a must visit place. Temple timings are 7am to 12: 30pm and 4pm to 6pm. In this temple Maa Kali is worshipped as the main deity. You can spend some good quality time with your family and friends here.

Very peaceful place. Must visit for all who stays in Bengal, particularly at South Bengal. Hanseswari Ma is form of Dakshina Kali, but completely different idol of Goddess. You will get Bhog at rupees 40/-. You can also deliver Pushpanjali. Terakota Vishnu Mandir is also noted adjacent temple to visit at same complex. 12 Shiva Linga surrounding Hanseswari Temple is also important to see.

That place forget my daily life routine, strees, every unstable things after take a round of this temple. There are many interesting historical stories which is so attractable.

I don't know that we have such a wonderful terracotta structure in Hoogly. The terracotta temple beside the main temple worth a look. In a nutshell a nice place to spent some quality time with family and friends.

Hangseswari temple is a Hindu ratna temple located in the town of Bansberia at Hooghly District,  West Bengal. The presiding deity of the temple is Hangseswari, a form of Maa adi parashakti jagatjanani dakshina Kali in Hindu mythology. In December 1799, Raja Nrisinhadeb Roy Mahasay laid the foundation stone of this temple. But after completion of the second storey in 1802, the founder died leaving this far-famed temple incomplete.  His second wife Rani Sankari completed the rest of the work in 1814. The temple is known for its unique ratna architecture.

It is a remote temple of devi shakti so crowd is thankfully still under control.the little of the old design that is left is really mesmerizing! The system maintained is well managed locally.a place for washing hands is just at the gate and shoes can be left right at the gate quite safely.the temple is spacious allowing movement easily.there are stalls nearby just like our other bengali temples of goddess Kali for getting stuffs for pujas. A last request to all visiting the temple though.there are a few dogs staying in and around the temple who belong more to that place than any of us visiting there.so kindly dont try to shoo them away.they are absolutely darling and peaceful in nature.thank you.

It is a very beautiful place unfortunately temple is closed due to covid 2nd wave lockdown from April 2021.

A real wonderful place.
I have visited this place numerous times.

The time of Puja is from 11am - 12pm in the morning.

The temple womans most probably at 6: 30am, and if you want to offer personal puja, you can come anythime before 11am and offer. The Brahmins stay in there.

You can witness along with this beautiful temple the heritage Radha Krishna mandir just beside it.

The place is clean, calm and serene. Take your next one day outing here.

This place also offers prasadam for just Rs. 40/-

Visited here recently. Beautiful architecture. Uploaded my journey experience in my youtube channel - "Journey Wheels Jomjomat". Go and check it out

Nice place. Beautiful teracotta design. At present it is very well maintained. Declared as a heritage sight. Presently due to covid norms no one is allowed to enter inside the temple. But still one can see the goddess from outside. The ganga river flowing on the back side of the temple adds to the beauty.
