Hanuman Vatika

Hanuman Vatika is one of Raurkela's most revered spiritual landmarks and a popular attraction for pilgrims and tourists alike. Spread across a sprawling landscaped campus, the complex is best known for its towering 75-foot statue of Lord Hanuman, one of the tallest in India. In addition to the main shrine, the Vatika houses temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, Goddess Durga, Lord Ganesha, Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, and several other deities, creating a serene environment for worship and reflection. Its peaceful ambience, lush gardens, and architectural beauty make Hanuman Vatika a must-visit destination in Western Odisha.
