I visited bhubaneswar 2 days back for official work and stayed for 2 days, we visited Puri Jagannath temple and some areas in bhubaneswar. So here few things which I noticed.

Nice roads with lot of trees and colorfull lights on both sides, have many place to sit and hangout with friends, usage of bicycles, decent traffic control but too much signals, lot of street food vendors, side dish for chapatis and rice had sweet taste, we noticed only few authentic variety street foods available like paanipoori and bondas served with yellow lentils stew ( tastes nice, is that gugni), not too much crowd in city even at peak times, music bands and drummers in functions (very interesting) 

We went to Puri jaganath temple, we were told that phones are not allowed and we understood the reason when we went inside the temple, pilgrims are sent inside batch by batch rathen than continuous queue (Good method in a way we could able to see and get blessings from diety quite a brief time), everyone raised their both hands and received the blessings are new to us and we followed the same, and I felt a massive positive vibration when we finaly saw the lords in between the massive crowd. But, everywhere is money, they don't even give thulasi leaf if we don't give money and they insisted it which I felt bad. And then we went to other places inside the temple bought kaja and idols as return gifts. 

Today we are back to tamilnadu, sharing my 2 day experience of bhubaneswar to you. I will come again whenever it's possible to odisha, and explore other unvisited places ♥️ ☺️
