Bhabakundalesvara Temple is an ancient and culturally significant hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, located in the coastal village of Manikapatna in Puri district, Odisha. It is a state-protected monument under the Odisha State Archaeology Department and is actively used as a place of worship and community ceremonies. The temple is believed to have been constructed in the 13th century A.D. during the Eastern Ganga dynasty, a period that saw the flowering of classic Kalinga temple architecture in Odisha. It represents the traditional Odishan (Kalinga) architectural style featuring Rekha vimana (curvilinear spire over the sanctum), Pidha jagamohana (stepped hall), a square plan with saptaratha (seven projections) and panchanga-bada (five-part wall structure). It has rich carvings on exterior walls — including nayikas (female figures), dvarapalas (guardian figures), dikpalas (directional deities), and the rare gaja-kranta (elephant motif) decorative element. The temple is situated on the left side of National Highway 203 (Puri–Satapada road), about 3.3 km from Dahikhia Chowk and approximately 0.5 km from the Bay of Bengal shoreline.
