Mausi Maa Temple, Puri
The Aunt's temple on the Grand Road, famous for Poda Pitha
Mausi Maa (the "Aunt's") Temple sits on the Bada Danda (Grand Road) between the Jagannath and Gundicha temples, and holds a charming place in Rath Yatra lore.
Why it matters
During the Rath Yatra, Lord Jagannath's chariot traditionally pauses here, and the Lord is offered the famous Poda Pitha (a baked rice-and-lentil cake).
Visiting
A quick, meaningful stop on a Grand Road temple walk.
