Shri Bhagavati: The temple, situated by the side of the main road in Pernem, is said to be more than 500 years old. Two life size images of elephants in standing position, made of blackstone, on either side at the entrance welcomes visitors. The Goddess Bhagavati Ashtabhuja in a sanding position on a high pedestal is very imposing.
Dusshera is celebrated with gaiety from Asvin Shuddha Pratipada to Poornima when over 25 thousand devotees assemble at the temple. |
