The results and discussion of this study indicate that there is an iconography of the symbols of Dewi Durga at the Dewi Durga MAA Temple such as the weapons used, namely cakra, pedang (khadga), gada, sankha, danus and sara, trisula and padma. Then one hand with the other in abhaya mudra. Worship of Dewi Durga is called Navratri (nine nights). Worship of Dewi Durga is focused on the first to third day. On the fourth to sixth day for Dewi Laksmi and on the seventh to ninth day, people usually worship Dewi Saraswati. On the tenth day, the people celebrate the highlight of the event (Vijaya Dashami).
