One of the most important and much venerated attraction of Tripura of the ancient temple of Matabari or Tripurasundari temple located on a hill-top 3 KM from the main town at Udaipur. Matabari (Place of Mother Goddess) is regarded as one of the 51 piths (holy sites) of Hindu pilgrimage. Goddess Tripurasundari is an avatar of the Goddess Parvathi, the consort of Lord Shiva, the principal deity of the state.

A Curious legend surrounds its origins. A king of Tripura Maharaja Dhanya Manikya of the 15^th century is said to have had a dream ordering him to establish Tripurasundari at this hill-top temple. But the king knew that it was already dedicated to Lord Vishnu and he knew that he could not obey the signs in the dream, because Lord Vishnu and the consort of Lord Shiva could not share the same abode. But the divine command was repeated to him next night giving in the king did as he was bid.
