Shri Naina Devi Ji Mandir is one of the fifty-one Shakti Peeths in India. Situated 60 km from Bilaspur District in Himachal Pradesh, Naina Devi Mandir is one of the highly venerated Shakti Temples in India. According to Hindu purana, sati, consort of Lord Shiva, killed herself by jumping in the sacrificial fire when her father Daksha Prajapati insulted her husband. This enraged Shiva who started roaming the entire universe with the body of Sati in his arms. Lord Vishnu dismembered the dead body of Sati to calm down the anger of Shiva. Various body parts of Sati fell at fifty-one different places in India that later became sacred as Shakti Peeths.
Thousands of pilgrims gather here every year on Navratri and Savana(Monsoon)to worship Goddess Parvati. The temple is situated on Shivalik Mountain and devotees have to cover a distance of above 2 km on foot. It takes for the normal Devotee an hour to reach the temple from the foothill. And now there is a ropeway to reach here and roopway to temple distance is about 20 minutes .
