Patali Srikhetra, Hindu temple at Trikut Hill in Kotsamalai, India

The Patali Srikhetra temple sits at the base of Trikut Hill, featuring traditional Odishan architecture and housing sacred deities in its sanctuary.

During the 4th century AD Muslim invasion by General Raktavahu, the original deities from Jagannath temple remained hidden in Trikut Hill caves for 144 years.

The temple complex incorporates elements from three major religious traditions: Shaktism, Buddhism, and Vaishnavism, reflecting the religious diversity of Odisha.

The temple lacks proper visitor facilities and road access, requiring visitors to climb unmarked paths to reach the religious structure on Trikut Hill.

Archaeological investigations revealed pre-historic connections between this temple site and other sacred locations through physical evidence found in the surrounding area.
