Bhuban Patra

Where is Ekamra Bhuban Patra

Where is Ekamra is my journey through the old quarters of the famous Shaivite city of Ekamra now known as Bhubaneswar. The city boasts of over thousands of Shiva temples and the historians term it as the City of Temples. The book covers these magnificent Shaivite temples from the Sixth Century till the Eleventh Century giving an insight on the Kalingan architectural styles and its various inspirations. The book explores the stories, mythologies and the legends of this land that had inspired and influenced the religious beliefs. The book not just provides a detail on various aspects of these lovely temples but also shows its readers its real self through the photos. These magnificent self talking granite wonders of Ekamra have been captured and illustrate the glorious past this land had. This is a book that intends to glorify the Ekamra temples and influence travellers to include Bhubaneswar as one of their must visits while travelling to Odisha or India. Ekamra as a name is lost amongst many other names but its essence in form of these lovely sandstone temples will definitely impress the travellers.
