Nalhati Voyage Tips and guide

You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

    Nalhati is a remote village in the central region of West Bengal and one of the 51 Shakti Pithas. It is believed that Parvati's throat (Nal) fell here, when Vishnu severed her body, with chakra, to stop Shiva from the Tandav nritya. That is why the name Nalateshwari is used as a synonym for the Peeth.
