Atharanala Bridge
The Atharanala Bridge, also known as Atharnala, is a historic laterite stone bridge located at the entrance to the city of Puri, Odisha. It spans the Madhupur or Musa stream and is locally known as the Atharnala Bridge. The bridge is a Monument of National Importance and is officially recognized by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
The name "Atharanala" comes from the Odia words "Athar" (meaning eighteen) and "Nala" (meaning passage), referring to the bridge's eighteen arches. The bridge was constructed in the 13th century during the reign of the Ganga dynasty by King Bhanu Dev. It was built to facilitate easier transportation and communication for the people of Puri and nearby villages.
