Hotels in Orissa, India

Orissa (Odisha) is an eastern Indian state along the Bay of Bengal, famous for its ancient temples like the Sun Temple at Konark and the Jagannath Temple in Puri. Winters from October to February bring pleasant temperatures around 70°F (21°C), perfect for exploring the 13th-century Konark complex or catching the colorful Rath Yatra festival in Puri. Summers can hit 104°F (40°C), but that's when you can head to Chilika Lake for boating and dolphin watching, or visit the cool hill station of Daringbadi.
