    If you’re only short on time, you might skip the longer walk to Lingaraj and focus on Dhauli Giri first. The Ashoka Pillar has a bronze plaque that explains the Kalinga war in detail, and the surrounding rock reliefs give a visual narrative you can read in about 30 minutes. After that, a quick stop at Bhimkhoj for the mythic spring is easy to fit in. If you need a place to rest before heading back, Hotel Jasmin Palace in Angul is a convenient option.
