I am Gaurav and want to share my experience about my first visit to this holy place. It was in 2008 when my father took us in vacation to puri. Its a wonderful city puri, having beaches temples etc.
We stayed in a hotel facing the beach which had a fantastic view from the balcony. Its sleeping on the beach., not really but really close to it.
Nothing made of leather or other equipment are not allowed in the temple.
U can keep your stuffs in looker available their only.
We went it of season but still after a small que we praised the Lord as we reached in side.
The temple has many scripture on it which is admirable.
Pasand is served as rice dal subji.
Their is a library which enlighten the life of the history of jaganath temple and the Lord.
Unforgettable experience
Felt close to my religion.
Beware of pandas. They can trick you for money.
