It was in the year 2023, just after the four months of the demise of my pet dog Kalu I went for a solo trip to Puri. In the meantime from the day of rathyatra 2023 to April 4, 2025 I lost so many closed ones, facing significant setbacks in various areas including the health of my family.
Puri is that place where I can have the clue and the direction of my life , Puri for me is a soothing blissful place where I can have peace. Puri never turned it’s back whenever I went there to find the unanswered questions.
My last three times visit to Puri were Rathyatra 2019, 2023 and this 4th April 2025. Last three times it was two days one night tour; last three times it was jagannath express either in return journey or both. Before that we could not grab it. I think the thought of visiting Puri came to my mind when I saw challenges while booking hotel and train tickets in the year 2016-17.
This year I also took dhauli express to visit sakkhi gopal and ram mandir and return to Puri in government A.c bus. If you want to travel cheap but comfortable in Puri you can avail various AC bus services.
From Puri bus stand-
AC 52 Puri light house via swargadwar.
AC 76 towards Sakkhi gopal.(Fare 35)
AC 74 towards jagannath temple.(Fare 10)
AC 53 Towards malatipatpur
Let’s have glimpse of my Puri journey 2025.
