ANANTA VASUDEVA TEMPLE

Built by Queen Chandrika, the temple houses idols of Lord Balarama, Lord Kirshna, and Subhadra. This temple is the only one in Bhubaneshwar where Subhadra can be seen holding a pot of lotus and jewels in her hands while Lord Krishna can be seen holding a conch, a lotus and a Chakra in his hand.  The statue of Lord Balarama stands under a serpent with seven heads.

The postures of the deities depicted in this temple are different than everywhere else, which is why it has become one of the popular Places to visit in Bhubaneshwar. The complex is beautified by the presence of numerous other miniature size shrines. The unique architectural style of this temple is considered to be very similar to the popular Lingaraj temple, another popular Tourist place in Bhubaneshwar.
