Bimala Temple (Shakti Peeth), Puri

Bimala (Vimala) Temple is a highly respected Shakti shrine inside/near the Jagannath Temple complex area in Puri. Devotees consider Maa Bimala as the presiding Shakti of the sacred kshetra, and many pilgrims include this darshan as part of their Puri yatra.

In Shakti Peeth tradition, this temple is associated with the Feet of Devi Sati, giving it a special place among Devi shrines. The spiritual feeling here is strong, and the temple is deeply connected with the broader rituals and sacred atmosphere of Puri.

Because the temple is in a major pilgrimage zone, crowd levels can be high in peak season and festival days. Visiting in the early hours or during less crowded periods can make your darshan smoother.

Timings: Darshan is commonly listed in two daily sessions: 06:00 AM–11:30 AM and 03:00 PM–09:00 PM.

How to reach: Puri is well connected by rail and road. From the main areas of the city, autos/cabs reach the temple zone quickly; then you proceed on foot through the entry routes.
