Chaturdasha Temple

The people of the state and surrounding areas were once the subjects of the kings of Tripura, who used to worship the fourteen gods and goddesses during their rule. The tradition of worshipping the fourteen deities has been handed down through the generations and is still in vogue. Thousands of devotees throng to the temple during and after the festivals to worship for the happiness and prosperity of their families, and the society has a whole. The idols remain behind closed doors for the whole year except during the Kharchi Puja when they are taken out. The puja held for seven consecutive days during the month of Asada in June to July is the only period when devotees can get a darshan of the gods and goddesses. Other than this there is no Chaturdasha temple timing when darshans are allowed.
