Chakapad Birupakhya (Siva) Temple, (Kandhamal district)


Chakapad is situated about 800 ft (243.84 m) from sea level in G. Udayagiri Tahasil of Kandhamal district. Berhampur is the nearest city from this place. Lord Birupakhya (Siva) is the presiding deity of this area. 

Chakapad, known for its natural beauty, lies at a distance of 60 km from Phulbani the district headquarters. There is a temple of Lord Birupakshya on the historical river Bhrutanga at this site. 
The unique aspect of this place is that the trees all around and the Siva Linga inside the temple lean towards the South direction.
