Geography & terrain
Kamaleswari Temple lies in the Kailashahar town of the North Tripura district in Tripura, 130 km from Agartala — the Shakti shrine of the Tripura's kings, its red walls and the river steps set on the Deo river's banks in the region's north.
History & culture
The temple's story runs with the Tripura's royal patronage — the 15th-century temple of the goddess Kamaleswari (the region's family deity of the Manikya kings), with the temple's history of the royal sacrifices and the region's Shakti worship; the temple's role in the state's temple circuit, with its annual Puja's crowds and the river's ghats, gives Kamaleswari its Shakti-shrine character.
