The Rameshwar temple is a very old temple in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, about 2 km from the Lingaraja temple, and is known as the Mausi Maa temple of Lingaraja. Legend says that when Rama was returning from Lanka after his victory over Ravana, Sita wished to worship Shiva here, and Rama set up a linga for the purpose. By tradition, at Ashokashtami, the day before Rama Navami in the month of Chaitra, Lord Lingaraja comes to this temple on a large chariot called the Rukuna Rath and stays for four days. The temple dates from the 9th century.
