This large tank is located south-west of Jagannatha Mandira in Markandeshwar-sahi area. Great Vaishnava sage Markandeya Rsi resides here worshipping Siva Deity named Markandesvara Mahadeva.
c Sri Madana-mohana, Lord Jagannatha’s utsava murti, enacts His Kaliya-mardana-lila (crushing Kaliya serpent) in this holy tank.
If one bathes in Markandeya Sarovara and then takes darshan of Markandesvara Mahadeva, he obtains the pious result of performing rajasuya and asvamedha yajnas.
