Reviewed By sarthakhota - Bhubaneswar, India

A modern temple complex dedicated to Lord Jagannath with stunning architecture. It is about 30 minutes away from the town of Balasore and I highly recommend a visit to this place if you are planning to trip to this part of India. A true architectural masterpiece indeed and very peaceful.
