Konark Day Tour - Visit the Sun Temple and Chandrabhaga Beach

Konark, known as the “City of the Sun,” is one of Odisha’s most famous places. Just about 65 km from Puri, it is home to the Sun Temple, a beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site. A day trip to Konark is perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy history, art, and the peaceful coastal surroundings.

Start Your Day Early

Leave your hotel in Puri or Bhubaneswar in the morning. The drive to Konark is scenic, passing through small villages, green fields, and coastal landscapes.

Visit the Sun Temple

The Sun Temple was built in the 13th century and looks like a giant chariot with twelve pairs of stone wheels and seven horses. Every wheel is decorated with detailed carvings, showing gods, dancers, and everyday life from the past. A guide can explain the stories behind the carvings and the temple’s history.

Explore the Museum and Local Shops

Next, visit the Konark Archaeological Museum to see old sculptures and artifacts from the temple. You can also walk around local shops to find stone carvings, handicrafts, and souvenirs to take home.

Lunch Break

Enjoy a simple, tasty Odia meal at a local restaurant. Try dishes like Dalma, Pakhala Bhata, and fresh seafood to get a true taste of the region.

Evening at Chandrabhaga Beach
