The coastal state of Odisha, steeped in a history spanning over 3,000 years, remains one of India's best-kept secrets. Travel Scope’s Odisha, India’s Hidden Gem itinerary allows one to explore the legacy of Kalinga, an ancient kingdom where Ashoka, a great Indian king, turned to Buddhism after the transformative Kalinga War. Odisha is home to abuntant religious and historical sites, diverse wildlife reserves and flourishing aquatic ecosystems. The real charm, however, lies in its vibrant indigenous culture, with over 62 ethnic communities shaping the state's social and political context. Uncover the layers of Odisha, like Puri, where ancient history and cultural diversity await to be explored.
Puri has been long known for its 12th Century temple – Jagannath Puri, with shrines to an unusual crowd of gods among the Hindu pantheon. The annual procession of Lord Jagannath’s chariot or rath and the throngs have given English the word “juggernaut”, signifying an unstoppable force. Beyond the city limits, 13th-century Konark Sun Temple is an ingenious architectural gem. Raghurajpur, an artisan village, provides a window into the legacy of rich arts and craft. And Chillika Lake, Asia's largest brackish water lagoon, provides a stunning backdrop for its diverse avian life.
