Ardhanariswar Temple




Situated beside Baneswar Shiva Temple in Coochbehar, Ardhanariswar Temple enshrines the image of Ardhanariswar.

The idol is carried temporarily to the Madan Mohan Temple on Madan Chaturdashi and Dol Purnima. Hence, the idol is known as Movable Baneswar. A big pond within the temple complex houses a large number of tortoises. A week long mela held here during Shiva Chaturdashi draws people from far and near.
