Durga Kund Mandir and Durga Temple, is one of the most famous temples in the holy city of Varanasi. This temple has great religious importance in Hinduism and is dedicated to the Maa Durga. Durga Mandir was constructed in 18th century by Rani Bhabani of Natore. Durga Mandir was constructed in 18th century by Bengali Maharani- Rani Bhabani of Natore. The temple is dedicated to the Goddess Durga. Next to the temple, is a kund (pond) which was earlier connected to the river Ganges. It is believed that the existing icon of the goddess was not made by a man but appeared on its own in the temple.
In adhyaya (chapter) 23 of the Devi-Bhagavata Purana, this temple's origin is explained, Kashi Naresh (king of Varanasi) called for a Swayamvar for his daughter Sashikala's marriage. The King later learnt that the princess was in love with vanvasi prince Sudarshan. So Kashi Naresh got his daughter secretly married to the prince. When the other Kings (who were invited for Swayamvar) got to know about the marriage, they got angry and went on war with Kashi Naresh. Sudarshan then offered prayers to Durga, who came on a lion and fought the war for Kashi Naresh and Sudarshan. After the war, Kashi Naresh pleaded to Durga to protect Varanasi and with that belief, this temple was constructed.
Durga Mandir is situated on the Sankat Mochan road, adjacent to Durga Kund, 250 meters north of Tulsi Manas Mandir, 700 meters north-east of Sankat Mochan Mandir and 1.3 kilometers north of Banaras Hindu University.
I am in love with this place. When i first came here everything was Unkown even the stories but now as i see myself here i could hear the mantras chanting, the temple's arti just gives ease to ny soul.
One of the best places in Varanasi that people usually miss while visiting Shree Durga Temple.
It's a nice view in the night with lights and fountains.
There are chairs all around the pond on which you can rest and enjoy the view.
It's open till 9 PM at night
You can visit on any day of the year.
This is one of the most crowded and loved places of banarasi people. Maa durga temple, shopping malls, food stalls and lot more. I would recommend you to visit this place in evening to see the crowd and craze of banarasiya.
Nice place to visit. If you follow God you must visit this place once in a lifetime
Very clean and very beautiful place. I like this place And all the facilities are available and there is a lot of space behind the temple in which sometimes a fair is held then it looks very beautiful.

The kund is just adjacent to Ancient durga mandir. It used to be very dirty with little or no water. However it's beautification in recent years have done wonders to the kund or pond. It's well lit at night And there are chairs all around the kund shere you can sit and enjoy the beautiful fountain and the temple in the background. There are lot of fishes in the kund. A casual walk around the kund is refreshing.
A place where you can relax with your family, kids or alone. It is situated in DLW campus where you can reach easily. There is a water fountain mid of the Pond. You can visit here any time but best time to visit the place is Early morning and Sunset
Really good.
It was awesome experience with varanasi people, ducks and fishes.
Yes, there were lots of fishes. And they were feeding them flour. We were there in September but there was a lantern festival, that time you should visit here.
