Conceived as a gigantic chariot with twelve pairs of carved wheels, this temple is an architectural feat for the
Orissan style. It originally consisted of a sanctum with a spire reaching more than 70 metres, an assembly hall and a dancing pavilion as well as a number of subsidiary shrines. The sanctum and the dancing pavilion have lost their roofs and it is only the assembly hall which has survived with its large pyramidal roof, the exterior of which is decorated with sculptures of musicians, dancers and maidens.

The great Sun Temple of
Konarak stands on the Bay of Bengal, where thousands of pilgrims still come to bathe in the water during the spring festival to celebrate the birth of the Vedic sun god, Surya. The temple was constructed by Narashimhadev, king of the Eastern Ganga dynasty in the 13th century.
