Dhari Devi Temple, 15 km from Srinagar on Delhi-Niti National Highway 55, leading to Badrinath

Dhari Devi Mandir, a cherished site, stands proudly on a rock in the Mandakini River, offering solace and strength to all who visit. The goddess here is unique, for her form changes from a young girl in the morning, to a nurturing woman in the afternoon, and finally to a wise old lady by evening. This transformation is not just of form but also of the energy and bhava that she radiates, making each *darshan* a unique encounter with the divine.
