Where is the Akshayapatra given to Draupadi by the Sun God now?

Akshayapatra is a significant object mentioned in the Mahabharata. It was a boon given to Draupadi by the Sun God (Surya). Due to this, during the Pandavas’ exile, after Draupadi cooked food once a day, anyone who came afterward would also receive food in abundance. It was a miraculous vessel.

Now, to the question — “Where is the Akshayapatra now?” — there is no clear answer. It is only mentioned in mythological stories. It has never been found in real life.

However, some places claim to have statues or replicas related to the Akshayapatra:

Tamil Nadu – In the Saraswathi Mahal Library in Thanjavur, a replica of the Akshayapatra is said to be kept.

In Himachal Pradesh, near the Adi Kailash region, there are also local beliefs and stories associated with the Akshayapatra.

But all these are based on faith and beliefs, and are not historically or scientifically proven.
