Podagada is 11 kilometers from Umerkote and about 78 kilometers from Nabarangpur. It was the ancient Nala Dynasty’s capital. The remnants of the ruling dynasties were protected by the Podagarh hill ranges, which were covered in dense forests. Their caves, inscriptions, and habitable stone structures indicate that the location was important before the Mughal invasion.
On the hill today, there are stone carvings and temples that have become tourist attractions. A Bhairaba temple at the foot of Podgad Hill attracts pilgrims and devotees who come to worship Lord Shiva. Punjisil waterfall is about 5 kilometers from Podgada. Podagada is a well-known tourist destination in Nabarangpur, Odisha.
