The cultural state of India, Odisha is a land of paddy fields, thriving tribal communities, golden beaches, centuries-old temples and lush wildlife parks alongside countless other attractions.

With a glorious history and abundant natural beauty, Odisha rewards travellers who come to unwind on its beaches, worship at its famous temples and explore its wildlife. Monuments across the state stand as reminders of its layered past.

The name Odisha derives from the Sanskrit “Odra Vishaya”. The ancient province stretched across the Mahanadi valley and the lower course of the Subarnarekha, taking in much of present-day Cuttack and Sambalpur.

Once a land of kings and kingdoms, Odisha is now rich in natural resources. Its people, temple architecture, classical dance, festivals, handlooms and handicrafts have long drawn historians, travellers and scholars from around the world.
