Navchandni Devi Dham

About Navchandni Devi Dham

Falgun is the month to plan a visit to this shrine, because that is when it hosts a massive fair loaded with cultural and religious activities. For highly spiritual visitors the place is a pure delight, and it is one of the shrines visited from the Hanuwantiya side of Khandwa district.

At the dham

The shrine

The dham itself is a devotional stop and the reason people make the journey. Visits are short outside fair season.

The Falgun fair

The fair in Falgun is massive and is loaded with cultural as well as religious activities. If you want to see the dham at its fullest this is the month to come, and if you prefer quiet you should avoid it.

Planning your visit

How you plan depends entirely on whether you are coming for the fair.

• For the fair, travel and stay in Falgun fill up, so book early.
• Outside Falgun, treat it as a brief devotional stop within a wider itinerary.
• Dress and behave as you would at any shrine.
• Confirm darshan timings locally; they are not recorded in our source material.

Best time to visit

Falgun is the month to plan around, because of the fair and its cultural and religious activities. Any other time the dham is a quiet, short visit.
