About

Sri Sri Karunamoyee Kalibari is a traditional and highly revered Hindu temple situated at Payra Chottor (near the Talatala area) in Rangpur Sadar, Bangladesh. Established in 1891 [Inference] (1298 BS), the temple has served as a major spiritual and cultural hub for the local Sanatan community for over a century. The temple becomes particularly vibrant during major religious festivals such as Janmashtami and Durga Puja.
