Description:
Lalitagiri is the earliest Buddhist complex of Orissa which is believed to have developed in the 1st century A.D. and is 55 kms form Cuttack. The recent excavation has brought to light significant archaeological material, which upholds Lalitagiri as a great centre of Buddhist attraction. The huge brick monastery, the remains of a chaitya hall, a number of votive Stupas and a renovated stone Stupa at the apex of a small rugged sand stone hill dominates the rural greenery around.
