My Bhubaneswar Trip-Raja Rani temple SERIES

I visited Bhubaneswar recently,in fact an impulsive one to say! This made me to see some great temples and other places.I will keep placing some beautiful pictures and my short account of experiences from this day.First ,starting with Raja Rani temple.Really this is one of the few unique places I have ever seen in my life.There is some Mysticism with this architectural wonder.

With all those exotic sculptures on these walls and redsand construction grandeur, Interestingly we find no any of Deity's image.Totally deserted calmness inside  the Temple.As historians opined it belonged to 11th century.Why is it named after Raja rani temple..instead of  Iswara temple.Somebody said The Kings and Queens were used to visit this place for refreshment.If it is right,why some queer pictures like 'Nagas' having "skulls" on their upper part depicted on the walls? In my opinion This belonged to Tantric or Sakta tradition.

Truly speaking, I went through a feeling of  Trance when I entered the sanctum.What a coolness inside even it was 42 degrees summer-day in Bhubaneswar.

A note to my blog visitors!

My Dear Blog Visitors!

I am going out of station for some days where internet facility may not be available for me...It's purely a personal work...If possible I will come back with some nice pics.Bye till then.

Rock houses

These two pics have taken on a hill.These kind of rock abodes called "Raakshasa Gullu or Pandava gullu" in local Telugu which means the houses of Monsters or Pandavas.In fact these were built by pre historic man to shelter from rain and heat.We have found some hundreds like this on suraveedu forest.

Beehive in the house.

This beehive is seen recently at my friend's house.
