Why go

The temple was inaugurated by Rani Rashmoni in 1855, and Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was the head and only priest of it from 1856 to 1886. He spent most of his life in the nahabat khānā (corruption of naubat xānā, meaning "drum house") chamber of the temple complex. After Ramakrishna's death, the temple complex had been taken over by the then-Government of Bengal, later the Government of West Bengal.
