Popularly known as Gupta Kedar in the vicinity, this sacred place is
associated with Shri Rama of the epic Ramayana.
The best time to visit Jeypore is in winter since the summers are
irritably hot in Orissa.
Getting There

taxis and auto rickshaws are available from the town centre to the shrine.
It is better to hire an auto for the to and fro journey if you are in a
group of three or four.
Jeypore is well connected with
other nearby cities but there are some roads which are in a pathetic
condition. Rickshaws are available. There are a number of moderately priced
hotels in the town.
