Tour Plan
Pick up from your Bhubaneshwar hotel for same day excursion visit to Konark Sun Temple & Chilka Lake .
Bhubneswar to Konark Temple - 90 minutes drive.
We will drive to the Sun Temple at Konârak, located on the eastern shores of the Indian subcontinent, is one of the outstanding examples of temple architecture and art as revealed in its conception, scale and proportion, and in the sublime narrative strength of its sculptural embellishment. It is an outstanding testimony to the 13th-century kingdom of Orissa and a monumental example of the personification of divinity, thus forming an invaluable link in the history of the diffusion of the cult of Surya,the Sun God. In this sense, it is directly and materially linked to Brahmanism and tantricbelief systems. The Sun Temple is the culmination of Kalingan temple architecture, with all its defining elements in complete and perfect form. A masterpiece of creative genius in both conception and realisation, the temple represents a chariot of the Sun God, with twelve pairs of wheels drawn by seven horses evoking its movement across the heavens
Amalgamated with romance, legend, and history at Odisha’s Chandrabhaga beach creates an ethereal atmosphere that draws writers, painters, and lovers.

It is also going to be mentioned on the world map soon. This beach is located on Odisha’s Konark coast is now the most pristine beach in India in the literal sense, which means that the next time you want to visit a clean and pleasant beach in India, go no farther than Odisha. The beach draws people because of its breathtaking beauty, but it is still relatively uncrowded and well-maintained.

We had an amazing time exploring the intricate details of the Sun Temple and immersing ourselves in the vibrant culture surrounding the Jagannath tradition. The all-inclusive aspect made our day feel seamless, although we wished the lunch spot had a bit more variety on the menu. Overall, this experience beautifully blended history and spirituality, making it a memorable outing for our group of friends.

Exploring the magnificent Konark Sun Temple and Puri’s Jagannath was a highlight for our family, with the intricate architecture leaving us in awe. The transportation was comfortable and efficient, allowing us to relax and soak in the scenic views along the way. However, we found that the time spent at each location felt a bit rushed, which made it challenging to fully appreciate the details of the temple’s artistry.

We truly appreciated the stunning architecture of the ancient temple and the vibrant atmosphere surrounding the iconic site. While the included lunch was delightful, we found the schedule a bit tight, leaving little time to fully soak in the surroundings.
