Odisha – India’s Best Kept Secret. This line we read while we were crossing Odisha in 2020 on our 9000 KM road trip. We wanted to explore Odisha at that time but almost everything was closed due to COVID restrictions.
Deep in our hearts, we wanted to travel to Odisha to have the darshan of Shri Jagannath Prabhu, witness the grandeur of Konark Sun Temple, India’s largest Chilika lake and much more.
Konark Sun Temple
Last week we got the opportunity to visit Odisha and to fulfill our dream. We started from Chennai and took a halt at Vijaywada, next day we reached Bhuvnesher after a wonderful journey through the east coast of India.
While in Bhuvneshwar we visited 1100-year-old Lingaraj Temple, Mukteshwar Temple, Dhauli Peace Pagoda, Udaygiri and Khandagiri Caves.
Mukteshwar Temple
The next day, we visited Puri to have darshan of Jagannath Prabhu, and later went to Konark Sun Temple. We had a guided tour to understand the history of the Sun temple followed by a beautiful Marine drive and Chandrabhaga beach.
Lingaraj Temple
Udaygiri and Khandagiri Caves are one of the most important places to visit for every history lover. The way caves were created for monks who used to meditate there away from public life are amazing.
Netaji Birthplace Museum
We visited Cuttack too, which is the birthplace of the biggest leader of India “Subhash Chandra Bose”. In Cuttack, we visited the “Netaji Birthplace Museum” and got to know many unknown facts about his personal and public life and how he sacrificed his life for the freedom of the country.
