City of Jagannath , Puri , is situated some 60 kilometers south of Bhubaneswar, the City of Temples. It takes about an hour journey to reach Puri by road from Bhubaneswar; the town is connected to major cities of the country by Railways also. Shri Jagannath, Subhadra and Balabhadra (Courtesy: harekrsna.com ) This was my third visit to the Puri. First was when I was a kid, not much in memories except that we roamed the city and the beaches in white- chikan kurta . Second, a few years back with my college mates, the Best visit, with lot of fun on and with the jovial humongous inviting waves of the Puri beach. This time it was an unplanned short visit to the city with my office mates. Jagannath Temple – A far view Jagannath means Lord ( Nath ) of the Universe ( Jagat ), and He is an incarnation of Vishnu. It’s believed that Lord Jagannath is the Neeala-Madhab of a Tribal King (Savar King) of Odra desha (Odisha).
