Konark and Puri Full-Day Sightseeing Tour from Bhubaneswar overview

Konark Temple is a 13th-century Sun Temple that was constructed by Narasingha Deva I.  The appearance of the temple comprises a 100-foot chariot with wheels and horses, all of which are carved out of stone. The wheels act as sundials and can precisely tell you the time. This temple was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the year 1984.

The Shree Jagannatha Temple is a temple that is dedicated to Lord Jagannatha, who is a form of Lord Vishnu. Unlike the other Hindu temples, the image of Lord Jagannatha is carved out of wood and is replaced every 12 or 19 years by an exact replica. This temple is famous for its annual Rath Yatra (Chariot Festival), in which the three principal deities are puled on largely decorated chariots.
