Bhubaneswar Puri Konark Tour
Bhubaneswar — Konark — Puri
The extra day over the four-day Golden Triangle goes into the two things visitors most often say they wished they had more time for: the Old Town temple cluster in Bhubaneswar and a slower, two-night stay in Puri. This itinerary works because it separates sightseeing days from rest days instead of packing both into every date.
Cuttack's Barabati Fort and silver-filigree lanes are added as a half-day detour, since the city sits directly between Bhubaneswar and the coast and is otherwise skipped by shorter tours.
Tour highlights
- Old Town temple walk with Lingaraj, Mukteshwar and Rajarani
- Udayagiri-Khandagiri caves and Dhauli edicts
- Cuttack heritage half-day at Barabati Fort
- Konark Sun Temple guided visit
- Two full nights in Puri with Jagannath darshan
- Raghurajpur crafts village
