Temple of the Goddess of Luck

Temple of Harshad Mata, Temple of Harshad Mata, Temple of Goddess of Happiness Harshita Mata
India, Jaipur
The Temple of the Goddess of Joy and Happiness Harshat Mata is located in the village of Abaneri (Abhaneri), on the Jaipur-Agra highway, 95 kilometers from Jaipur. The small temple was presumably built between the 8th and 10th centuries, on a massive stone foundation, decorated with various architectural elements in the form of columns and temple pillars with various religious scenes and images of gods. The temple is active, but needs restoration. Nearby is the famous Chand Baori step well, 30 meters deep and with 3,500 stone steps.

The medieval Temple of the Goddess of Happiness Harshita Mata is not at all associated with Happiness, it was built presumably in the 8th century on a massive stone foundation and is currently in a dilapidated state. Centuries and invasions have affected! Fragments of sculptures awaiting restoration work are stacked on the base and nearby along the circumference, and it is not known how long they will have to stay in such an expectation. The surrounding residential areas of the town of Abaneri (about a hundred kilometers from Jaipur) are poor, children are waiting for tourists at the temple in anticipation of odd jobs for demonstrating tricks or just alms.
