w	weldvivek on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I will recommend visiting Konark Sun temple museum before actually visiting the Sun temple. The reason is this museum gives complete history of Sun temples all over the world. It also gives information about all Sun temples in India. Construction details of Konark Sun temple is given in photographs and text. There is about 20 minutes film on Sun temple. Must visit.
