List of Jagannath Temples outside Puri
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The List of Jagannath temples outside Puri includes Hindu temples dedicated to Jagannath, a form of Vishnu worshipped mostly in Odisha. The Jagannath Temple, Puri is still the most important shrine and a major place for pilgrims to visit.[1] However, there are now many other temples in India and other countries that are dedicated to Jagannath.[2][3]
Many of these temples are connected to Odia diaspora communities and hold ceremonies like the yearly Ratha Yatra.[4]
