Chamunda Devi Temple:- Chamunda Devi is revered as  a
Shakti shrine, situated 10 km west of Palampur located in the
state   of   Himachal   Pradesh. This  is  the  place  where  the
Demons Chand and Mund came to conquer  Devi  Mahakali
and during  the  fight,  the  Devi  cut  their  heads. The  heads
were   then  presented   to  Maa  Ambika, who  in  turn  told
Mahakali that  She will  be  worshipped  as Chamunda Devi.
This Sidhapeeth has now become aplace  where  saints  and
priests pray amidst natural  surroundings. Since  this  colorful
shrine has a wrathful form  of  Chamunda  or  Mahakali, it  is
considered   to  be  very  sacred. The  idol  in  the  temple  is
completely hidden beneath a red cloth and it  is believed  that
here Lord Shiva is present in the form  of  death,  destruction  and  dead  bodies  along  with  Chamunda  Devi. Devotees flock to this temple to offer prayers, worship and give offerings for their ancestors.
