Founded in: Eleventh century
Rajarani temple is one of the most distinguished temples in Bhubaneswar, the capital city of Orissa. It is made from the magnificent red and gold sandstone, which is locally known as Rajarani and thus the temple is named as “Raja Rani Temple”.
The major attractions of the temple consist of the richly carved figurines. This temple is dedicated to Lord Brahma. The origin of this temple is dated back to the eleventh century.

It is an embodiment of style and grace. The sculptural images beautifying its front view and interiors are just outstanding. It is nice to see females portrayed in different postures, like holding the child in their arms, holding mirror in their hand, etc. There is no other temple of this kind in the entire state of Orissa. Rajarani temple has also been adorned with wonderful artistic sculptural carvings and stands all around within a beautiful garden.
