Unusual Temples In India That Might Be Interesting To Visit

Chinese Kali Temple: Tangra's Chinese Kali Mata Temple is so named because it is worshipped by the Chinese people. Tangra is referred as Chinatown in Kolkata as  Chinese migrants who have lived in this town for many generations are its residents. Even though the Kali statue is identical to all other idols, what makes the location special is the prasad. It includes dishes like noodles, chop suey, and rice and vegetables. Even though the people there are mainly Buddhists and Christians, a Chinese Kali Temple here is a special example of how different cultures may coexist. (Image Source: Twitter)

Aeroplane Gurudwara: Shaheed Baba Nihal Singh Ji Gurudwara, often known as the Aeroplane Gurudwara, is a unique place in the country. Visa seekers frequently visit this holy place. It is said that if you pray at this temple and present a toy aeroplane, your visa will arrive quickly. Whoever had the bizarre idea to present aeroplanes to the shrine is unknown,  however there is a tale behind this peculiar local superstition. Many years ago, a group of boys who were waiting for their visas offered toy aeroplanes at the gurudwara and prayed for the fulfilment of their wish to go abroad. And their wish was granted! Since then, the shrine is popularly known as Aeroplane Gurudwara or Hawai Jahaz Gurudwara. The toy aeroplanes are gathered at the end of each day and distributed as prasad to young children who come to pay their respects. (Image Source: Twitter)
