Kalighat Maa Kali puja with my family members walking through skywalk

It is considered one of the 51 Shakti Peethas (holy shrines where parts of the goddess Sati's body are believed to have fallen) in Hindu mythology, making it a significant pilgrimage site for devotees from all over India and beyond.
The exact origin of the Kalighat Kali Temple is shrouded in mystery, but it is believed to date back several centuries. The temple in its current form was built around the early 19th century by the Sabarna Roy Chowdhury family, a prominent zamindar family in Bengal. The temple's name "Kalighat" is derived from the word "Kalikshetra," meaning "the land of Kali." The name of the city "Kolkata" (Calcutta) is also believed to have been derived from Kalighat.
It is believed that the face and the toes of the right foot of Goddess Sati fell here during Lord Shiva's Tandava dance after Sati’s self-immolation. The idol of Goddess Kali here is unique and different from other Kali idols in Bengal. The present idol is made of black stone with three huge eyes, four hands, and a long protruding tongue. Two of her hands hold a sword and a severed head, and the other two hands are raised to bless her devotees. Kalighat Kali Temple holds immense religious significance for Hindus, especially devotees of Goddess Kali. It is believed that the goddess fulfills the wishes of her devotees and offers protection against evil forces.
