Lonely Planet review for Dakshineswar Kali Temple

The heart of this vibrant complex of 14 temples is a red-and-yellow 1847 Kali Temple shaped like an Indian Sacré-Coeur. This was where Ramakrishna started his remarkable spiritual journey and his small room in the outer northwest corner of the temple precinct is now a place of special meditative reverence. On Sundays the extensive complex is thronged with devotees.
