Naina Devi Those yearning for solace, peace and salvation, Nainital is the ideal place as this charming hill resort got its name from the Goddess Naina Devi. At this place both the eyes of Devi sati had fallen to the earth. In this temple Durga Maa is in the shape of Pindi (Shrine) Devotees in great number visit this place during Navratras and on Ashtami (Eight Day ) of the month of Shravan. Near the Shivalik mountain, there was a devotee of Durga named Naina. He used to take is cattle on to the shivalik mountain for grazing. There was a papal tree which is existing even today in the temple premises. One day Naina went under that tree and saw that there was an idol of Durga beneath the leaves of the tree. The same day Durga Maa appeared in the dreams of Naina at night and said to him "I am Adishakti Durga " you should build a temple at this place under the papal tree and I will become famous with your name. This beautiful temple is known as Naina Devi Temple since then. There is also a cave near the temple which is known as the cave of Naina Devi.
