Taptapani Hot Spring

Taptapani, as the name suggests, is famous for its hot springs. Nestled at about 1,800 feet (550 m) above Mean Sea Level, this spot is only 56 kilometers away from Berhampur. A few minutes walk from here will take you to Kandimata Mandir where the locals take a bath in the spring before offering their daily prayers.

There is also a deer park maintained by the forest department, which adds another feather to Taptapani’s cap.
