The holy city of Puri, located 60 km from Bhubaneswar, holds immense significance as one of Hindus' four most divine tirth yatrapoints. The majestic temple of Lord Jagannath, built in the 12th century, is not only a place of worship for the people of Odisha but also attracts devotees from all corners of the country.

The pinnacle of devotion to Lord Jagannath is witnessed during the annual Rath Yatra in June and July. The grand procession involves the splendidly adorned chariots carrying the divine images of Lord Jagannath, His sister Subhadra, and brother Balbhadra. Thousands of devotees enthusiastically pull the chariots along Puri's Grand Road (Bada Danda), leading them to the Gundicha Ghar, where they reside for a week. The process is repeated with utmost religious fervor when the deities are ceremoniously brought back to the temple.

Though the temple is closed to non-Hindus, the activities of the Jagannath Temple are so immense that they create enough colour and interest for tourists to participate in the bazar element of the proceedings outside the temple precincts. The other important feature of the town is its beautiful beach which, for centuries, has offered pleasure to both pilgrims and swimmers. This picturesque beach is one of the most delightful white beaches in the country and is becoming a pleasure haunt for tourists from all over the globe.
Though the surf here is pretty exciting, the under-current can be a bit tricky, so tread carefully. The areas both within and outside Puri offer excellent shopping and the nearby artist villages of Pipli (for the famous applique work), Raghurajpur (for pata and palm-leaf paintings) and Balakati (for bell-metal work) bring shoppers directly in contact with the craftsmen at work. It can be quite an experience.
The Gundicha Ghar or Gundicha temple is an important part of the famous Rath Yatra festival of Puri. It has some interesting legends related to it. According to one the Gundicha Ghar is the house of Lord Krishna's loving aunt. On the day of the Rath Yatra, Jagannath, Balabhadra and Subhadra are taken in gorgeously caparisoned wooden rath (chariots) from the main gate of the Jagannath temple to Gundicha temple. At the garden house, their aunt greets them by feeding them padoapitha (specially baked rice cakes). This place is regarded as equally holy as Lord stays here for nine days during the festival.
It is a well-known hill station as well as a religious center. It is the winter seat of lord Badrinath. Auli, 6 km from Joshimath can be visited for skiing and other winter sports during winters. The Valley of Flower is a place known as Heaven on Earth. There are numerous verities of flowers in the valley, which are rarely found otherwise. You can see flower like Brahma Kamal there in the months of June-August. Hemkund is near the Valley of Flowers. There is beautiful lake, Hemkund and the Gurudwara of Hemkund Sahib. It is the highest gurudwara in India.
(25 kms from Puri) is known for the living shrine of Alarnath. Pilgrims visit Alarnath during Anabasara of Lord Jagannath. Nearby is the shrine of Baliharachandi on the solitary sand dunes.
27 km to the south-west of Puri is the temple of Baliharachandi. Situated on a sandy hill near the sea and adjacent to the mouth of the river Bhargavi, Goddess Durga is worshipped here as Baliharachandi.
