Devi TempleInside the Ram Mandir annexed to the Annapurna Devi temple complex, Bhavani Gauri sits between the shrines of Kali Devi and Jagannath — a Nau Gauri Yatra stop whose Kashi Khand sequence calls for a preceding bath at Bhavani Teerth.
Her placement directly between a form of Kali and a Jagannath shrine means a single short walk through the annexe brings a pilgrim past three quite different divine forms — fierce, auspicious, and cosmic — a layout that's fairly typical of how multi-deity temple compounds developed in old Kashi over time.
The Kashi Khand's instructions treat Bhavani Gauri as part of a ritual sequence rather than a standalone visit: bathing first at Bhavani Teerth, then proceeding to worship the goddess, with the seventh day of Chaitra Navaratri marked as her particular day in the yatra calendar.
Because the shrine is reached primarily by reference to the better-known Vishwanath temple rather than any street address of its own, most visitors locate it by first heading toward Vishwanath and then asking for the Annapurna/Ram Mandir annexe specifically.

Bhavani is a widely used name for the Devi across India; this particular shrine is specifically the Bhavani Gauri named in Kashi Khand's Nau Gauri Yatra sequence, distinct from Bhavani temples elsewhere.
