These hand made paintings have intricate details. Their theme revolves around the stories of Jagannath Prabhu and also local folk tales. Pattachitra paintings can be divided into three categories – paintings on cloth called ‘Patta Chitra’, paintings on walls called ‘Bhitti Chitra’ and engravings on palm leaf called “Tada Patra Chitra’.

He is worshipped not only in India but also in Sri Lanka, Thailand and Nepal.This is a perfect Indian cultural souvenir.
