Jagannath Puri Tour: Golden Beaches and a Rendezvous with the God


Jagannath puri tour

Jagannath Puri is a popular tourist spot located in the south-western part of India in the state of Orissa. One of the biggest attractions of Puri is the gold beaches that are washed by the mighty Bay of Bengal. Puri’s beaches are actually extremely sunny & sandy and make for a great sight since the sea here is pretty rough and aggressive. The sight of the giant waves crashing into the rocks can fill the heart with an arousing sense of thrill.

Jagannath Puri tour is also a pilgrim destination. Being the divine abode of Lord Jagannath, the place is a sacred one and a regular haunt for Hindu pilgrims. There are dozens of temples spread all across Jagannath Puri. Most of the temples are colossal and reflect great artistry that will strike awe amongst every traveler. More importantly, they are epitomes of sanctity and are visited by a throng of Hindu people from all over the country for seeking divine blessings.

Though, you can take the Jagannath Puri tour anytime during the year, it is the festive season of Rath Yatra which will sweep you off your feet. Thousands of devotees congregate here to take part in the chariot-pulling ceremony and the riotous revelries that follow. It is a sight to behold and one that is telecasted live on television throughout the country.

Apart from the sunny, golden beaches and the sedate temples, Jagannath Puri has lot more to offer in terms of sightseeing, luxurious resorts, affordable hotels, religious culture and hygienic food.
