Sun has always been treated as God, the energy provider. Konark Sun temple is a great piece of art, an architectural marvel, a monument which speaks of the rich heritage and culture of Ancient India. A temple built more than a 1000 years ago is beautiful with its detailed and intricate carvings. Government of Odisha and ASI is doing a good job in preserving this piece of art. If you wish to see the real India then instead of visiting the over-rated Taj or Qutub please visit this Sun temple and temples in Khajuraho.

Fell in love rather rose in love upon reaching and experiencing Bhubhaneshwar,-Odisha, its architecture, religious psyche, the people.No less was my experience at this Iconic Lingaraj Temple.Being a ritualistic worshipper myself of almost all the traditions including the Vaishnavite and Shaivite tradition, am well versed the sacred hyms and articles of worship to be offered to the respective dieties.This was the only Temple from over ten thousand temples I have visited throughout India,Which not only allowed but celebrated the Worship of these 2 cosmic wielders of forces of Nature,I.e: sattva and tamoguna with their respective articles of significance -Tulsi leaves to Lord Narayana,and Bilva Leaves for Lord Shiva with their respective hyms.thiroughly enjoyed the ritual and time spent at the sanctum sanctorum thoroughly.Here also bought aswellas donated a Flag that would be hoisted atop of the Temple.Great Temple,Loved it thoroughly.

Nothing can describe the ultimate pilgrimage of Hindu religion. The seat of Lord Jagannath, literally the king of the world. From the vast temple complex, to the intricate carvings on the walls of the structure,to the flag which always flies in the opposite direction of the wind to the sanctum sanctorum where only the privileged see the Lord and his siblings is a very humbling experience. The kitchen is huge and cooking is done for approximately 50000 people daily by an army of cooks in only earthen vessels on a wood fire and water drawn from wells within the complex. This temple along with Konark should be on top of the bucket list when visiting Odisha, India.

Reviewed By sarthakhota - Bhubaneswar, India
A part of the golden triangle of buddhist heritage in Odisha alongwith Lalitgiri and Udaygiri. Ratnagiri is a 2-3 hours drive from Bhubaneswar and is a place soaked in history which makes it an amazing place to visit if you are looking for a peaceful and fun time with your friends and family while being in the lap of nature.
10. Maa Cuttack Chandi Mandir

Reviewed By foodntraveldiaries - Bengaluru, India
Ask anyone what to see in Cuttack and this temple will be the first you’ll hear ! The temple is of the presiding deity of Cuttack – Goddess Chandi and hence the name. It’s a small temple but step inside and it resonates bliss ! It’s quite famous and its gotta be the first thing to do in the city. I was here in the evening hours and its beautiful ! The diyas (lamp) all burning in tandem. The Prasada stall with all the good choices on the sweets is just perfect.
