About Huma Leaning Temple
A small Shiva temple on the bank of the Mahanadi, about 25 km from Sambalpur, which leans visibly to one side. It is a short stop, but the setting is pretty, and the river fish that gather at the steps are fed by visitors. Combine it with Hirakud and Samaleswari.
What to see and do
