Barabati stadium is one of the most famous stadiums in the world. The inspiration for this gigantic stadium was from the ancient pride of Kalinga Barabati, whose name was enough to scare the enemies.

According to a legend, the imagination of a fort at that particular location came to king Anangabhimadev -3 when he came to Barabati fort for Lord Visheshwar Mahadev. He saw an astonishing scene in front of him, one heron was attacking a hawk. Amazed by the scene the king had imagined a fort there.

But from Historians point of view the main reason for the fort foundation was it's strategic location as it was bifurcating Mahandi and kathjori river.
