Bhubaneswar, Odisha · 20.2350°, 85.8333°
A Shiva precinct in Bhubaneswar whose lingam stands in a large circular stone yonipitha on a raised platform beneath a pipal tree. It is called Kharakhia because the shrine is open to the sky and the sun falls directly on the lingam all day; an old laterite well stands beside it.
