“𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚- 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐎𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚”
The new Odisha Tourism portal, https://odishatourism.gov.in/, was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Odisha, Shri Mohan Charan Majhi, in the presence of Hon’ble Deputy Chief Minister Smt. Pravati Parida, Chief Secretary Smt. Anu Garg, IAS, Commissioner-cum-Secretary, Odisha Tourism, Shri Balwant Singh, IAS, Director, Odisha Tourism, Shri Deepankar Mohapatra, IAS, former Indian hockey captain Shri Dilip Tirkey, former Indian cricketer and coach Shri Kapil Dev, Chef Ranveer Brar, among other dignitaries, at the 7th Odisha Travel Bazaar (OTB) 2026, and is now LIVE.
We are proud that, as the technology partner, E SQUARE has contributed to bringing this vision to life through the design, development, and technology enablement of the portal and its digital experiences.
The idea is that someone who has never been to Odisha can get a real feel for the place before they arrive. Here's what travellers will find:
• 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐕𝐢𝐛𝐞: Start with what you're into: nature, adventure, heritage, spirituality, food, beaches or just some quiet. The portal shows you what fits.
• 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐎𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚: The well-known landmarks, along with the hidden gems most visitors never hear about.
• 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭: Odisha Walks, Travel Diaries, Postcards from Odisha, Glimpses of Odisha and a Video Gallery.
• 𝐀𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐩: Showing attractions, places to stay, amenities and points of interest across the state.
• 𝐀𝐧 𝐀𝐈 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐛𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐈 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐩 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫: Ask a question in plain language, or build an itinerary around your interests and the time you have.
• 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, so discovering, planning and booking happen in one connected flow.
Behind all of this is a Digital Experience Platform (DXP). It lets the Department keep adding and updating content on destinations, events, cuisine, stays and stories as Odisha's tourism offer grows.
The design is visual and mobile-friendly, with younger, digital-first travellers in mind. The content itself is about Odisha's people, crafts, food and hospitality, and we hope that's what visitors remember.
