Jagannath Temple, Hindu temple in Alwar, India

The Jagannath Temple complex contains two gateways leading to a prayer hall supported by pillars adorned with floral carvings and detailed ceiling artwork.

The temple received its ceremonial chariot, known as Indra Vimana, as a donation from the former King of Alwar for religious processions.

The temple celebrates an annual Rath Yatra festival that includes a wedding ceremony between Lord Jagannath and Goddess Jankiji, drawing numerous participants.

Located 150 kilometers north of Jaipur and 160 kilometers south of Delhi, the temple maintains regular hours for devotees and visitors throughout the year.

The temple houses two representations of Lord Jagannath in its Garbhagriha: one stationary and one mobile, with the fixed deity visible only during specific festivals.
