The list featured a picture of the Kamakhya Temple, located in Guwahati. It is one of the oldest among the 51 Shakti Peeths. The temple is unique as it has no idol of the Goddess, which is generally the case in most Hindu temples. Instead, a natural stone in the shape of a yoni (female genital) is worshipped. The temple also celebrates the menstrual cycle of the Goddess.(PC: Shutterstock)
