About Rajarani Temple in Bhubaneshwar

The Rajarani Temple was established in the 11th century in Bhubaneswar and is a love symbol.

The temple on the exteriors has carvings of women and couples. There are no idols or images inside the sanctum of the temple, hence it doesn’t belong to any specific section of Hinduism. The temple is open for all and people can come and pray to any God or Goddesses. Though, one can find carvings of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati on the walls which tell us there could be some connection of Rajarani Temple with Shaivism.

History of Rajarani Temple

The exact year when the temple was constructed can’t be assessed however, it is believed that it was established between the 11th and 12th centuries. Initially, the temple was called Indreshwara Temple and later it got the name as Rajarani Temple. There was renovation and refurbishing work carried out in the year 1903. The place holds an image of an important and prestigious religious place in Bhubaneshwar. The temple is preserved and taken care of by the Archaeological Survey of India.

Gajendra's 4 days trip to Bhubaneswar

Hotel at Puri (Pride Ananya) was great in every aspect. The Adventure Hotel at Bhubaneswar was good at stay but very poor in services. Even after advance intimation from our travel agent as well as from us, they didn't provide packed breakfast as we had to leave early to take a flight. Regarding transportation, driver was great with average vehicle health. All the described places were covered and enjoyed it thoroughly.

Vikram's 7 days trip to Bhubaneswar

I opted the services of Inde D Voyage for a trip to Odisha for my parents. I have no words to explain how awesome it was! Shibashis Ji made sure that everything was perfect, starting from the planning of the trip, the hotels, the transportation, driver and everything. he tailored the trip as per the requirement in the best possible way. My parents thoroughly enjoyed the trip and really appreciated the way it was so well planned and executed. The driver, Vasudev was also very nice and helpful. All in all, undoubtedly 5 stars services. A big kudos to Shibashis Ji and his team for doing such a tremendous job!! I would highly recommend the services of Inde D Voyage.
