Chitai Golu Devta Temple

Wish temple about 8 km east of Almora, hung with thousands of bells offered to Golu Devta, the Kumaoni god of justice.

Chitai Golu Devta Temple is recognised by the copper and brass bells that cover its walls, trees, and railings. Devotees tie handwritten petitions to Golu Devta, who is worshipped as a form of Gaur Bhairav and as the region's god of justice. The shrine is a short drive from Almora and pairs well with Kasar Devi on the same morning. Stay in Almora and allow an hour at the temple for the bells and courtyard.
