About Ambamata Temple

Ambamata Temple, a large Hindu temple in the middle of Udaipur in Rajasthan, is considered as one of the major places of worship in Udaipur. This temple was constructed by Maharana Raj Singh of Udaipur. It is assumed that he built this temple on the instructions of the goddess Amba Mata in Gujarat.

History

It is believed that Maharana Raj Singh (1652-1680) suffered from severe eye trouble, and even efforts made by Raj Vaidya could not cure him. He was then advised to visit the Ambika Mata temple in the Arbudancha hills of Gujarat. But before starting the journey, the Maharana saw the Goddess in his dream and was told that he need not make the journey as the Goddess herself was coming to Mewar. Based on the instructions provided in dreams, the Maharana and his courtiers started digging at a place where they found an idol of goddess Ambamata. Immediately on the extraction of the idol from the ground, Maharana was also fully cured from his ailment. Maharana started construction of a temple at the same location. The temple was completed in Vikram Samvat 1721(1664 AD).
