Rourkela
Rourkela offers a spiritual and landscape-focused outing through Hanuman Vatika and the Ved Vyas temple area. The first combines a prominent Hanuman statue with gardens and shrines, while the second is associated with the confluence of the Sankh and Koel rivers. These provide contrasting settings beyond the city’s industrial identity.
Discover Rourkela
The rivers meet to form the Brahmani, giving the Ved Vyas area a geographical significance alongside its religious traditions. Stories connecting the site with the sage should be understood as local belief. Hanuman Vatika, by contrast, offers a landscaped temple-campus experience with several shrines within one organised setting.

The landscaped complex is known for its large Hanuman statue and additional shrines, combining worship with a garden setting.
Ved Vyas Temple and river confluence
