Raghurajpur Heritage Village stands as a living museum of traditional Odishan art and culture, recognized by UNESCO for its exceptional preservation of indigenous crafts. Located just 14 km from Puri, this picturesque village is home to master artisans who have kept alive ancient art forms like Pattachitra painting, palm leaf manuscript writing, stone carving, and wood crafting for generations. Every household in the village is involved in some form of traditional art, making it unique in India. Visitors can witness live demonstrations, participate in workshops, purchase authentic handicrafts directly from artisans, and experience the cultural heritage that has been passed down through centuries. The village also serves as the birthplace of Gotipua dance, a precursor to Odissi classical dance.
