Puri is one of the three major spots of the Orissa
Golden Triangle and one of the four major holy places in India.
Besides, being a most important Hindu pilgrimage

destination and an
abode of Lord Jagannath, Puri is also gaining its high as a beach
destination. Both Indian and foreign beach lovers have made Puri as
their desired beech vacation spot. The beach is quite long and wide
extending over miles and miles. It is famous for its golden sands,
gentle glittering rays and the most panoramic vista of sunrise and
sunset. The view of fishermen indulging with their sailboats or
setting their nets is just thrilling As it is with all the beaches
of Orissa, overcrowding is never a problem and the visitors spent
their whole day on the seashore enjoying the pristine vista.
