  Abstract


The Vaital Deula is one of the most famous Tantric temples in Odisha. It is dedicated to Goddess Chamunda and follows the unique Khakhara order of Kalinga architecture. The temple is known for its semi-cylindrical shape, complex sculptures, and strong connection to Tantric religions. The current study looks into the study of art, architectural parts and sacred landscape setting of the Vaitala temple. To understand the sacred geography of the Vaitala temple the present study use QGIS tools for georeferencing, spatial mapping, GPS-based documentation, buffer analysis, and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) maps are prepared and interpreted to understand the relationship of the temple with the landscape. The study shows the connection of Vaital Deula to the larger sacred urban network of Bhubaneswar, which includes nearby temples and water bodies used for rituals.
