Answer:

Indradyumna got Visvakarma, the architect of Gods, to build a magnificent temple to house the idols, and Vishnu himself appeared in the guise of a carpenter to make the idols on condition that he was to be left undisturbed until he finished the work.

Many regional cultures grew around religious traditions, such as the cult of Jagannatha (a name for Lord Vishnu that means Lord of the World) in Puri, Odisha. Archaeologists have found ancient wooden idols of the same deities whose statues were later built by kings for new temples.

Lord Jagannatha was earlier worshipped as a local deity. But in the 12th century, king Anantavarman decided to build a temple, and in 1230, king Anangabhima III dedicated his entire kingdom to Lord Jagannatha.
