Gadakujang


Gadakujang Temple
Situated at around 14 kms from Kujang, 54 kms from Jagatsinghpur and 34 kms from Paradip, Garhkujang is famous for its deity Kunjabihari. This village had the garh or fort of Sandha Raja of Kujang, and hence the name Garhkujang. The garh is ruined now and the remains of the garh stones are witness to the past. Lord Kunjabihari is being worshipped here in form of Lord Jagannath with elder brother Balabhadra and younger sister Subhadra. The place is usually called as Subhadrakshetra after the name of Subhadra. Legend has it that a devotee of Lord Jagannath, Iswar Mohanty by name, took the brahmah of Jagannath, Balabhadra and Subhadra from Puri at the time of destruction of the Lord Jagannath temple by Kalapahad. He worshipped the brahmah first at Mahavir Ashram on the banks of Jatadhari River around 2 kms away from this village. Subsequently, the Sandharaja came to know of this in his dreams and placed the bigrahas in this temple. During that time, the place was surrounded by kunja bana and accordingly, the deity came to be known as Kunjabihari.
