Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Kalika Mata Temple is a popular Hindu temple inside the Chittaurgarh Fort complex, with many locals coming to pray when I was visiting. The temple is principally for Bhadrakali, a form of the great goddess Shakti. Purely from an aesthetic point of view, the temple is not all that interesting. There’s the usual array of relief sculptures of Hindu themes, but the walls are not as elaborately decorated as many of the other temples in the complex. Okay to visit, but I wouldn’t go out of the way to see it.

I visited Kalika Mata Temple in Fort Chittaurgarh in mid april with a business colleague on our way to Udaipur after attending a colleague's wedding in Asind.
The Kalika Mata Temple is situated few hundred meters before the Padmini's Palace in Fort Chittaurgarh. Our tour guided did not recommend a stop for the temple. He just stopped our vehicle in front of the temple for us to see it from our car.
The temple is a popular place of worship among local devotees. A common ritual of the temple is to offer animal sacrifices to the Goddess Kali. A nearby empty ground is reserved for devotees to perform sacrifice rituals.

While visiting the magnificent "Chittaugarh Fort", just between "Padmini's Palace" and "Vijay Stambha" (the "Victory Tower", dedicated to Lord Vishnu), you will find a true architectural gem: the "Kalika Mata Temple". This temple was built in the 8th century and dedicated to Lord Surya (the Sun God). At the 14th century, after its destruction by Delhi's Sultan Alauddin Khilji's army, the temple was reconstructed and then dedicated to Goddess Kalika. Intricate carvings and designs adorn its gates, pillars and ceilings, as well as the beautiful narrowed rooftop. "Kalika Mata Temple" is one of the most visited temples, at "Chittaurgarh Fort", by tourists and also by the local population, as religious rites are still performed within its precincts. Goddess Kalika, most commonly known as Goddess Kali, is believed to be an incarnation of Goddess Durga, the "Divine Mother of the Universe" and destroyer of all evil forces. Dress properly, be silent and respectful. You are visiting a sacred and active temple. May Mother Kalika and Mother Durga protect your journey at "Chittaurgarh Fort" and Rajashtan, with their blessings for enjoyment and salvation. Say a prayer. Silently. Enjoy!

Must see temple just before Padmini Palace. Adequate parking available around the temple. The premises are clean with beautiful Kalika Mata Moorti inside the temple.
Lots of monkey but they doesnt harm anyone.

The Kalika Mata Temple is dedicated to Goddess Kali. The temple is located within the Chittaurgarh Fort. It is one of the oldest temples within the fort and is supposed to have been rebuilt after sacking by Sultan Alauddin Khilji in 1300s. The temple walls have some really beautiful carvings which one can spend time to admire. The temple is functional and is popular with the locals.

We had visited Kalika Mata Temple located inside Chittorgarh fort during our vacation in Udaipur. This temple is dedicated to Goddess Kali and we could see this from outside only because of the huge rush of devotees on the auspicious occasion of Navaratri festival. This temple is considered to be sacred and very popular among locals.
