Comment: I am not exactly sure what this is even supposed to be referring to. I have gathered that it is a village in India, but that needs to be made apparent. TheBritinator (talk) 17:11, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
Sialia is a village in Rajakanika Block, Kendrapara district, Odisha, India known for having no doors, a sign of the villagers's trust in their neighbours. The village is in the Rajkanika block of Kendrapara district in the Indian state of Odisha. 125 families are living inside this village, which has an area of 12 we hectares and it is called as the doorless village.[1] No house of this village has doors and windows. The people of this village have immense faith on Parvati as Kharakhai and know that the power of Parvati as Kharakhai will protect them.[2] An Anganvadi worker named Gita Sahu in Sialia has said that "even the Anganvadi has no padlock where baby foods, rice, dal, medicines are stored".[3] It is also true but no thefts were recorded at this village.
Surrounded by grown up large banyan trees, the Hindu temple of Parvati as Kharakhai is placed at the end of this village. The temple has no roof because it is known that Parvati as Kharakhai loves sunlight, that's why the name Kharakhai is given because in Odia, sunlight means "Khara".[4] Due to this special thing, this village is able to attract tourists from different places. So to maintain this, the district administration plans to invest some money to build parks, toilets, and parking.[5]
