Jeypore city was set up in the 16th-century by the Suryavanshi dynasty. Located in the Koraput district, the historic city constantly changed hands between empires, leaving an unmissable footprint on its culture and architecture. Located amidst the Eastern Ghat ranges, Jeypore, one of the most popular places to visit in Orissa, is bestowed with dense forests, beautiful misty valleys, and waterfalls attract travellers from all over the country. The rich landscape also includes limestone caves, temples, palaces, and age-old bridges. The stupendous architecture of the Raj Mahal here is one of the most popular attractions. Though in ruins, the architecture of intricately carved walls, arched doors, and minarets tells the story of its once glorious past. Another great attraction is the British-era iron bridge known as Patraput Bridge that connects the Ranchi-Vijayawada corridor. This magnificent 88-year-old structure is a magnificent symbol of stunning architecture. Visit the intriguing Gupteswar Caves located amidst forests atop a hill. These limestone caves have a hidden Lord Shiva temple along with a huge ‘lingam’.
