About

A 17th-century hilltop temple modelled on the Jagannath Temple in Puri, built by a local Thakur ruler, and still the site of the region's biggest Rath Yatra chariot festival.

Did you know? The temple collapsed in 1990 and had to be rebuilt from scratch, reopening in 1992, meaning the structure standing today, while faithful to the 17th-century original, is largely a modern reconstruction.
