Gandhamardhan hills, Sacred mountain summit in Bargarh district, India
The Gandhamardhan Hills rise to 990 meters above sea level, forming a natural boundary between the Bargarh and Balangir districts of Odisha.
Ancient Buddhist monasteries once stood on these hills, as documented by Chinese traveler Hiuen-Tsiang who referred to them as Po-lo-mo-lo-ki-li.
The Nrusinghanath Temple occupies the northern slope while the Harishankar Temple stands on the southern side of these mountains.
The hills contain 220 documented medicinal plant species, supporting traditional healthcare practitioners who serve approximately 50,000 tribal residents.
Local villages including Khandijharan and Manbhang supply herbs from these hills to manufacturers of Ayurvedic medicine products.
