Get an immersive experience of The Sun Temple. The Sun Temple at Konark is the pinnacle of Odisha Temple Architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The temple is a culmination of seven hundred years of grind in search of perfection. Built-in 12th Century AD by King Narasimha Deva I and dedicated to the Sun God, the Sun Temple at Konark continues to leave us spellbound with its massive structure, symmetry, precision, and intricate detailing. According to Archaeologists the height of Sun Temple at Konark is estimated to be around 227 feet, making it as one of the tallest temples ever built in the country. However, what remains today is the impressive Jagamohana ( Entrance Hall) with the sanctum sanctorum has but almost collapsed. The other structure that still stands amidst the ruins is the Natya Mandap minus the roof. The temple was designed as the chariot of Sun God driven by twenty four beautifully carved wheels and pulled by seven horses. Apart from its beauty what captivates historian is the scientific precision. For example, the wheels are designed in such a way that one can gauge the time of the day by looking at the shadow cast on the spoke of the wheels by the sun. Not only that the carvings of the spoke and axels denote the activated that one normally does at that time of the day. The wheels popularly known as Konark Chakra is a popular souvenir collected by the tourists visiting the temple. #konark #360video #vrvideo #suntemple Music Credit: Track: Kovan & LaCrème - Miracle (Feat.
