Ram Mandir, Fatehgarh

Popularly known as the 'Ayodhya of Odisha', the Ram Mandir at Fatehgarh is one of the state's newest and most prominent pilgrimage destinations. Situated atop a hill, the temple is dedicated to Lord Ram, Lakshman, and Mata Sita. Construction began in 2017 through the collective efforts and donations of local villagers and the Shri Ram Seva Parishad, culminating in its grand inauguration on 22 January 2024, coinciding with the Pran Pratishtha ceremony of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. Built in the traditional Kalinga style with an imposing 65-foot Rekha Deula, the temple combines architectural grandeur with serene natural surroundings, attracting devotees and tourists alike.
