Geography & terrain
Tripura Sundari Temple lies in the Gomati district of Tripura at about 60 m, 55 km from Agartala and 3 km from Udaipur — the shakti peetha town of the region, its 1501 temple, the twin shrines and the hills set on the Tripura plain.
History & culture
The temple's story runs with the 1501 founding era — the shakti peetha town of the 1501 temple and the 16th-century-era patronage of the Manikya kings, with the temple's modern role as the pilgrimage of the Agartala circuit and the home of the 1501-era temple and the twin shrines and the 2000s-era halls; the temple's history of the 17th-century-era expansions and the festival days, gives Tripura Sundari its shakti character.
