The Katyayani Temple is located in Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh, near the Radha Mohan Ghera area, and close to Seva Kunj. It is situated in a peaceful part of town, easily reachable by auto-rickshaw or e-rickshaw from central Vrindavan and nearby temples like Banke Bihari and ISKCON.

The Katyayani Temple is dedicated to Goddess Katyayani, one of the forms of Durga. According to Srimad Bhagavatam, the gopis (cowherd girls) worshipped Goddess Katyayani here to get Lord Krishna as their husband. The temple symbolizes pure devotion, wish-fulfillment, and is especially revered by women devotees.

The present-day temple structure was developed and maintained by ISKCON devotees and Gaudiya Vaishnav organizations. While the exact age of the original site is ancient and tied to Vedic lore, the current temple complex has been built in modern times to honor the sacred location mentioned in Krishna leelas.

The temple is generally open from 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Special pujas and aartis are conducted daily, and additional rituals take place during Navratri, Purnima, and festivals related to Goddess Durga. The temple atmosphere is serene, making it ideal for quiet meditation and prayer.

The best time to visit is between October and March, when the weather is pleasant for walking and temple visits. Navratri is a particularly auspicious time to worship Goddess Katyayani, as special decorations, chants, and yagnas are organized. Visiting during the Kartik month also holds great spiritual value in Vrindavan.
