Glimpses of Maa Baglamukhi Mandir, Nalkheda — captured by our pilgrims.
One of India's three legendary Baglamukhi Siddha Peethas — a place of Tantric power,
divine grace, and ancient mysticism on the banks of the holy Lakhundar River.
Located in Nalkheda town of Agar-Malwa district, this ancient Siddha Peetha sits on the banks of the sacred Lakhundar River. It is one of only three principal Baglamukhi shrines in all of India — the others being in Datia (MP) and Kangra (HP).
