 The temple is dedicated to Shantadurga, the goddess who mediates between Vishnu and Shiva. The deity is also called 'Santeri' colloquially. This avatar of Shree Jagdamba Devi which had come to make peace (Shanti) between Shree Vishnu and Shree Shiva, came to be known as Shree Shantadurga Devi.

Balaji Temple

Tirupati Balaji Padmavati temple is situated in Kunkuliem village enveloped with greenery from all sides.
The idol of Balaji is very tall and it gave us a feeling of visiting the Tirupati Balaji temple in Andrapradesh. Next to the Balaji temple there are shrines for Padmavathi and Ganesha. Like the South Indian temples this temple in Goa has a dwajasthambha. This temple was blessed by Jagadguru Sanuacharya of Kanchikamakoti Peetam.
