Bhubaneswar is often called the " Temple City of the East" and was once the capital of an ancient kingdom. The imposing spire of the Lingaraj Temple, the quiet beauty of the Vishwa Shanti Stupa in Dhauli and the pink translucence of the Mahavira Jain temple in nearby Khandagiri, inspire feelings of wonder at their sheer beauty and their cross- cultural permutations. The temples have stood testimony to the area 's history which spans 25 centuries. The Lingaraj, the Parsurameswar , the Mukteswar and the Rajarani temples are unique in themselves, not only in their architectural beauty but also in the wonderful sculptures which enhance their presence.
