If someone were to ask me- if there is one place you must visit in Uttarakhand which place would it be, I would say you must visit Parvati Kund and Jageshwar Temples in the Kumaon region of the state. The natural beauty and divinity will leave you spellbound.

Of course, Uttarakhand has many well known places worth visiting and I have also visited the state very often. This includes the sacred places of Kedarnath and Badrinath, which are most memorable experiences. But, to return to Parvati Kund and Jageshwar Temples after many years has been special.
When Maa Durga had to move to Kolkata from Dhaka after 1947 partition rยกots

The original Dhakeshwari temple in Dhaka was built and Devi installed in 12th c. CE by Raja Ballal Sen (Sena dynasty), and Dhaka was named after the Devi.

During the post partition days, as rยกots continued unabated, in 1948 a special plane shrouded in secrecy arrived in Kolkata from Dhaka. As curiosity grew around the special flight, it was soon learned that the passenger who had flown in was a very special one. It was the murti of Devi Dhakeshwari from the famed temple in Dhaka. The small golden murti of the Devi was put into a box, placed inside an ordinary suitcase, and covered with clothes and newspapers to avoid Dhaka customs detection. The suitcase was carried by Rajendra Kishore Tiwari (temple sevayat), and accompanying him were Harihar Chakravarty and Brajendra Dubey. The murti, once in Kolkata, was taken to the home of an industrialist Debendranath Chowdhury, whose family owned the Banga Laxmi Cotton Mill. Soon Debendranath Chowdhury acquired land in Kumartuli and built a temple, where Dhakeshwari devi was installed in 1950 and the temple was named Dhakeshwari Matar Mandir.

Images are of Dhakeswari Devi that is Katyani Durga, an aspect of Devi Mahisasuramardini in the Dhakeswari mandir, Kumartuli, Kolkata.
