According to the prevalent legend, the king of Chudangagada was a devout worshipper of Lord Lingaraja. He used to visit Lingaraja every day. Since it was not possible to commute to Lingaraja during the rainy seasons the lord advised him in a dream to construct a temple in the centre of a neighboring lotus pond where the lord himself dwells as a Jalasayi. The King complied with the desire of the lord by constructing the present temple, which is located on the western embankment of the Jalesvara pond. To conduct the rituals and other associated activities of the temple the King gave land grants to the Brahmins of Rahanga sasan and other Sevayatas. Hence the place is known as Kalarahanga. It was completed in 12th century A.D.

Its a second lingaraj temple, nice and beautiful temple. Jai jaleshwar Baba.

Very nice place situated near Maa Charchika temple. Banki

The 800+ years old architectural genius of this little know Shiva temple is evident right at its beautiful entrance. Unfortunately the Odisha Architectural Survey & Odisha Govt have done a apathetic job at cleanliness of the Jaleswar Temple.

Best ever place to feel alive

One of the most ancient and beautiful Temple in Odisha.

7th century Jaleswar Temple is dedicated to Bhagwan Shiv situated on the southern outskirt of the village Kalarahanga at a distance of 2.00 km from Patia and 6.00 km south of Chudangagada in the northern outskirt of Bhubaneswar, Odisha.The presiding deity is a Siva-lingam within a circular yonipitha inside the sanctum, which is 1.15 meters below the chandrasila. The sanctum measures 2.00 square meters.

Beautiful Temple..Brings Calmness and Peacefulness

12th centurys Shiva temple....popularly known as Second Lingaraj. Behind there is a big pond

Beautiful Place, we did Rudravishek there.

Such a historical place should have developed well, even the road to temple are narrow

Very peaceful ancient place.. love this place

It is awesome place ,with a big pond...stone work is awesome..Really a piece full place.

Very nice temple

Ancient heritage site

Nice tample

It is a very old n nice temple made up of rocks only. They say that this temple was built after the Lingaraj Temple. It is a very nice place also. Very quiet . I like this temple very much.

An ancient temple probably from 13th or 14th century situated to the north of village Kalarahanga, is a holy shrine of Lord Shiva. A small but clean watered lake touches the temple and is believed to be sourcing water from deep inside the earth. Not many people are aware of the fame of the Hindu heritage sight. A small colony of priests (Brahmins) reside around the temple who are believed to be camped by the king who built this monument. The local villagers volunteer for every festival organized here. I recommend this place as a must visit place if you belong to Hindu community.

A great place of ancient heritage which only a few people know about. It has a pond alongside the temple. The place has a huge parking but the area in which the temple is situated is relatively small. The place is peaceful. The roads leading to the temple are a bit narrow, bikes and cars can go, but you would find it difficult to reach the place in a bus. To reach the temple in public transport, you have to reach near Kiit square through Mo Bus or auto from there you have to take an auto. The distance fron kiit to the temple is around 3 Km. Or you can reach the Patia Station in passenger train and from there you can take a auto for 1.5 km or even you can walk in a pleasant day.

Its a really old temple, situated inside the Kalaranga village. One can go to the temple after crossing patia station and towards the new kalarang electric substation. Has a big open space outside of the temple for parking vehicles, there is a shop for all puja items outside of the temple. Temple compound is well maintained and of good size. Its made in old lingaraj temple style architecture. Has a mangala maa temple too inside the compound. It also has a big pond at the backyard of the temple. Really good Shiva temple to visit.

Beautiful and peaceful although you can find some monkeys here are there. The lake behind is quite clean.

A temple of 12th century.. really peaceful place

Beautiful temple ...#peacefull...#workship...

Very nice view .. nice temple..

Always old is gold....

Nice place and easy to find out. Best place for small functions.

I love my Jaleswar temple. ....and I proud of my village

A beautiful place in the vicinity of Patia railway station, with a grandeur of the old era which exudes a feeling of peace.

Om Namah shivaya.A peaceful temple, quite a less crowded.

A very old beatiful and unique temple by the side of a old lake build by a lord of Chudangagarha locally named as Padmakeshri around 12th century

Visit to see the great historical place near BHUBANESWAR

Located at kalarahanga, little far away from Patia railway station. Its a clean temple and there is a pond.

My favourite temple I love my jaleswar temple

A very good and peaceful and silent atmosphere

A fine architectural specimen , on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar city. A must see for architecture lovers and Siva devotees alike. This temple has a mythological story around it which is proudly told and retold by locals and priests alike. There is an open elevated deul inside the main complex. The complex comprises of 5 main temples and few smaller ones. There is a serene lake adjoining the north side wall of the complex. Offbeat and difficult to reach. Best time to visit is perhaps dawn and dusk due to light effects Sun plays on the temple shrine. There are few annual fairs around the temple complex during Lord Siva festivals (e.g. Shivaratri) and it is in itself a unique experience visiting the place in that time.

I am very proud of my village Kalarahanga...... jaleswara temple
