Hello friends today I am reviewing on the world famous sun temple.it is situated in konark a small town in the district Puri of odisha.it is the only temple present of sun lord in the world.it is also known as black pagoda.
Konark is an easily accessible place.it is approx 60 km from the capital city Bhubaneswar. The roads are good.the nearest railway station is Puri.Bhubaneswar has a domestic airport also from where you get a flight to approx whole India.
The local sightseeing is very good.there are many markets where you find the art and culture of this beautiful state.you also have to visit the Jagannath temple and chilika lake.
There are lots of hotels and lauges for accommodation.sun temple is a world heritage site.many assumes that the first sunlight rays comes to this sun temple.
Actually the original sun temple is sunken in the depth of the sea.because it present near the sea shore.now the present temple is the copy of the original one and is made in the British rule.
It is designed in such a way that the temple looks like the chariot of the Lord sun.it has 24 wheels, 12 horses, and is fully sculptured.all the stones pieces are interlocked without any cement.
The konark is a very safe place because it is a tourist place and government takes care and responsibility and security of this place.
Thank you,
