Kalighat Temple in Kolkata is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas, the network of shrines linked to the goddess Sati, and for many Bengalis it is the most immediate of them all. The deity here is Kali, worshipped in the form known as Dakshina Kali, and the present building dates from 1809. The temple stands at the centre of a neighbourhood that grew up around it, and pilgrims come throughout the year, in the largest numbers around Kali Puja and the new-moon nights. This is a working place of worship rather than a monument arranged for visitors. Expect crowds, damp floors near the sanctum, priests moving briskly between queues, and the smell of incense and marigold. Allow about an hour, which covers the queue, the sanctum and a walk past the outer shrines. Arrive early in the morning for shorter queues, remove shoes before entering, leave cameras alone inside, and decline any panda who offers a quicker route in exchange for payment.
