Devipatan Temple

According to the Hindu legend, when Lord Shiva was carrying the corpse of his wife Sati, her right shoulder (Pat) fell on this land. Another story says that the right thigh had fallen from the corpse of Goddess Sati. The Sudarshan Chakra of Lord Vishnu chopped off goddess Sati to death. Since then the temple is believed to have the sacred part of the Goddess. The temple is on the glistening snowy mountains of the great Himalayas, believed to be the home of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. It is around 70 kms away from Gonda and 2 kms away from the Tulsipur town in the Balrampur district.
