Puri is a town situated along the long coastline of Orissa and it is a perfect blend of madness and inspiration. The famous Jagannath temple is a very important temple and is of great religious significance. However, the beaches of Puri are totally different and take you away from the world of ringing bells.
The beaches remain empty during most of the time and have been marked by the settlement of numerous resorts. The soothing and clear water of the beach is enriched with aquatic life and fine golden sands lining the shore of the beach make it a perfect place for evening walks. Swimming and sun bathing are common activities during the day.
