The Kakatpur Mangala Temple is a temple

:The Kakatpur Mangala Temple is a temple in Kakatpur, Puri, Odisha.Dedicated to Goddess Mangala a manifestation of the Mother Goddess Durga, the Temple is located in the town of Kakatpur in the Puri District of Odisha. The temple is built in typical Kalinga style and is a major pilgrimage for devotees of Shakti cult. Pilgrims frequent the temple seeking boons from Maa Mangala.There is a bed made of solid stone on which it is said Maa Mangala rests after touring the entire universe everyday.As if to attest to this the bed looks worn out in just the same way it would if it were in use for centuries.
