Reviewed By senraayan - Varanasi, India
Located atop of a small Nilachal hill at Guwahati, the temple has a very unique history and is the most popular temple dedicated to Goddess Shathi (Bleeding Goddess) in India. The temple premises are clean and well maintained but mostly crowded, even during weekdays. One has to be there at early morning hours to get lined up for the free dharsan of the deity and the dharsan inside main tower, closes at 1300hrs. Special dharsan (500 bucks per head) facility is also available but tickets can be booked at the early dawn hours, on the same day of dharsan. A big tower along with a few nearby towers with kalasams at the top appears so divine and graceful, representing the great marvels of indian traditional architecture. Daily Annadhanam available between 1200 to 1500 hrs and is very very well managed by the temple authorities. Cameras and mobiles are allowed inside the premises but photography inside the main tower is prohibited. Special facilities like waiting room, wheel chairs etc for differently abled and old people are provided by the temple authorities and it is really worth tonnes of thanks and appreciation.

I love to be in Chandubi for an overnight stay in Chandubi jungle camp.Iwas there this Christmas holidays with my school friends. For staying, tents and mud cottages with thrashed roof are available amidst nature. One can enjoy sitting by the campfire, listening to the sound of jackals calls. Wake up in the morning by the sound of birds chirping or in the winter, sound of dew drops falling over thrashed roof or on the ground. Chandubi lake is around 65km away from Guwahati.It takes about 2 to 2 and half hour to reach by road from Guwahati. Chandubi is a natural lake, formed during earthquake in 1897 when forest went down to form this lake. This lake is situated in the foot hills of Garo hills.A big and beautiful lake with surrounding small, very clean, ideal tribal villages on both side of the lake.One can enjoy tracking to the village and nearby small water falls.People are predominantly of Rabha community.One can also enjoy local food and their handicraft and culture.
