History of Chinese Kali Temple

There is an interesting story associated with this must-visit temple in Kolkata. There was a 10-year-old Chinese boy from the surrounding area, who fell so ill that even doctors were unable to cure his disease. Losing all hopes, his parents lay him down near an old tree and prayed to god for his good health. They continued to pray several days. Suddenly, on one day a miracle happened; the boy got well. With that miracle, the site became a place of religious importance .
