Mansa temple is another essential places to visit in Haridwar. A Hindu temple named Mansa Devi is located in the holy city of Haridwar in the Indian state of Uttarakhand. The devotees come to this Temple to worship Goddess Mansa. She is said to be a manifestation of Shakti, who emerged from the great Sage Kashyap's thoughts. Sidhpeeth Mansa Devi Temple provides sweeping views of the city of Haridwar. The Shivalik Hills, the southernmost mountain range of the Himalayas, contain the Temple. It is at the top of the Bilwa Parvat. One of Haridwar's Panch Tirth is the Temple, also famous as Bilwa Tirth.

History of the Temple

The Temple is famous for being the sacred residence of Manasa. Mansa, which translates to "wish," refers to the idea that a devout devotee's wishes are all granted by the goddess. Devotees in the Temple pray Mansa to fulfill their wishes by tying threads to a tree's branches. When their wishes come true, people return to the Temple to untie the thread from the tree. 

The Temple is located in the historic and fascinating city of Haridwar. One of the oldest places of worship in the entire nation is Haridwar. According to Indian mythology, Amrita accidentally spilled from a pitcher. Lord Vishnu's chariot, the celestial bird garuda, carried the pitcher. 

The Chandi Mandir is quite close to the Mansa Devi Temple. It is a belief that the two goddesses Mansa and Chandi, two aspects of the goddess Parvati, always live next to one another.

Ropeway at Mansa Devi Temple

You can also include a ropeway cable ride in your Haridwar tour package. A ropeway service is available for guests and pilgrims to ascend to the top of the Temple.

The budget for transportation to and from the Temple is around INR 163 per person.
