Maya Devi Temple is an ancient 11th century sanctuary dedicated to Goddess Maya, the patron guardian deity of Haridwar. Historically revered as the heart of Mayapuri (the historic classical name for Haridwar), this sacred temple is recognized as one of the prominent Shakti Peethas in Uttarakhand.
According to Puranic scripture, this is the holy spot where the navel and heart of Goddess Sati fell while Lord Shiva traversed the cosmos. The inner sanctum enshrines an ancient black stone murti of Goddess Maya depicted with three heads and four arms, flanked by Goddess Kali and Goddess Kamakhya.
Together with Mansa Devi Temple and Chandi Devi Temple, Maya Devi forms the revered Siddh Peetha triangle of Haridwar. Pilgrims complete their religious circuit of the holy city by offering morning prayers and coconuts at this historic shrine.
The temple complex retains rare medieval stone engravings on its outer walls. Daily morning and evening aartis resonate with traditional conch blowing and devotional hymns.
Visiting Hours: 6:00 AM to 12:30 PM & 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM daily
Entry Fee: Free entry for all pilgrims
Maya Devi Temple is situated in Mayapur near the Haridwar bus station, approximately 1 kilometer from Haridwar Railway Station.
Maya Devi Temple can be visited throughout the year, with festival seasons marking peak devotional fervor.
