On the new year day , I was at PURI ; with my family.This was first time I have been near to sea.I was amazed !What a beautiful scene it was. Specially ;as I imagine; PURI has one of the best sea beaches in INDIA.Beaches there were with a smooth decline into the sea. The water was clean and blue. The sand was glowing like gold.Mild tides were producing heavenly sound.I have found some small crabs on the beach.
The city itself was neat and clean.After the sea, we visited the LORD JAGGANATH TEMPLE.It was so huge and with a devine aura.Other day we visited KONARK, DHAULAGIRI, SHREE LINGRAJ TEMPLE, and NANDAN KANAN.All the places were interesting and of historical importance .Konark was marvelous and a temple without deity.
The statue of SUN GOD was at Shree Jagganath Temple .Dhaulagiri was the place were the famous Kalinga battle was fought by The Great Ashoka; the king of Magadh Empire. Where he promised not to fight any more and accepted the Boudh Dhamma. Shree Lingraj Temple was situated at Bhuvaneshwar where a joint LING of LORD SHIVA and LORD VISHNU is worshiped.Shows cohabitation of SHAIV and VAISHNAV MATAS.
Nandan Kanan was favorite of children. I also enjoyed looking the worlds smallest monkey and the white tiger among many animals.Altogether it was a nice tour, and I shall suggest all of you to visit PURI at least once in your lifetime.
