About the festival

Puri Ratha Yatra, famously known as the Car Festival of Puri, is the most elaborate and pious festival in Orissa, India, that has still not ceased to astound believers and visitors, locals and tourists alike, with its magnificence. Seas of people flow in from all direction to get a look at Lord Jagannath of Puri. They jostle amongst themselves, as waves would do in an ocean, to grab hold of the rope that draws Lord Jagannath’s chariot forward. Be a part of the crowd; join in their earthly pursuits of drawing the chariot forward to its destination on your tour to Puri, Orissa, during the Puri Rath Yatra.
