Not many know that the Durga Puja is an important festival of Odisha, India.
There are lots of Pandals in every village, town and city of Odisha.
Here are some pics from Bomikhal, an area of the capital-city of Odisha, Bhubaneswar.
Got to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Bhubaneswar!
A demoness overlooking the Pisa Tower...
The pics may tell the story of the demoness, but how about watching her live in action?
You must watch the following video to get a feel of the atmosphere!
Got scared/hungry watching the video?
Never mind! Feast with the grace of Sai Baba!
Notice that Lord Jagannath is on the Bomikhal Durga Puja Samiti Pandal.
These were just 2 of the Durga Puja Pandals of Bhubaneswar.
