Dhauli, where The Kaling war Fought...!

Have seen Dhauli photos many a time, But being there is a completely different for me...! Before coming in to Blogging world,Visited many important places but did not take pics as I was careless.Right now, I started understanding how a fresh photo worth for a photo blogger like me.Camera became my most important friend now to grab the world ,of which keep learning unending lessons.

Dhauli hill is presumed to be the area where the Kalinga war was fought.It is 8 k.m away from Bhubaneswar and just beside the Daya river.On the top of the hill,a dazzling white peace pagoda has been built by Japan shangha and the kalinga nippon Buddha sangha in 1970.

There are Buddha statues and other related pictures in the pagoda.Four sides four different statues of Buddha are beautifully erected.Many Ashoka's rock edicts excavated around this place.

Pagoda Front side view....!
Some peace lovers should have kept flowers there..!
Daya river plains from Dhauli hill, It is said to have turned a blood flow when kalinga war took place..!
Depicting some story from the life of  The Great Master.
It could be too...!

  5. Lovely photos of a favorite tourist place ..... Been there four years back.... Have you tilted the camera deliberately? Otherwise you may think of making some adjustment in photoshop to correct it....
