Bhubaneswar — the Temple City of India and capital of Odisha — is home to over 700 ancient temples, several dating back to the 7th and 8th centuries CE. As the anchor of the iconic Golden Triangle (Bhubaneswar–Puri–Konark), it's simultaneously a living heritage museum and one of India's fastest-growing Smart Cities. Our comprehensive local sightseeing package takes you through the best of Bhubaneswar's architectural marvels, historical caves, and modern attractions with comfort and expert guidance.
Why a dedicated taxi is essential: Bhubaneswar's attractions span from the Old Town's narrow temple lanes to Dhauli Hills (8 km away) and Nandankanan Zoo (20 km away). Public transport cannot efficiently cover this spread. A PuriTaxi.in sightseeing cab ensures you see everything comfortably in one day.
Visit Lingaraj, Mukteswar, Rajarani, and other architectural masterpieces
Explore Udayagiri & Khandagiri Caves with ancient Jain rock-cut sculptures
Visit Nandankanan Zoo, home to white tigers and diverse wildlife
Experience serenity at Dhauli Peace Pagoda, site of Kalinga War

Site of Kalinga War 261 BCE · 8 km from city
One of history's most momentous sites — where Emperor Ashoka's bloody Kalinga War led him to embrace Buddhism and non-violence. The white Peace Pagoda, built by Japan Buddha Sangha in 1972, crowns the hill. Ashoka's rock edicts at the base are among India's oldest surviving royal proclamations.

11th Century CE · Old Town
The "Love Temple" — unique for having no presiding deity and celebrated for sensuous sculptural art. Built from reddish-golden rajarani sandstone that glows beautifully in morning and evening light. Features couples in intimate poses alongside navagrahas and ashtadikpalas. One of Bhubaneswar's most photographed temples.
