Some of the most magnificent temples ever constructed can be found in India, a country that is a fusion of different religions, spiritual practices, civilizations, and traditions. No matter where you go in the country, you will undoubtedly come across a stunning temple. In India, there has been sun worship since the Neolithic era.<\/p>\n

It is proven by the roughly carved pictures of the sun in a rock shelter in the Sundargarh area of Odisha. The heavenly body’s brilliant splendour must have astounded the early Man, who must have bowed in awe at it. Sun temples may also be found outside of India in places like China, Egypt, Peru, Japan, and many more countries.<\/p>\n

Although the Sun, or Surya, continues to play a significant role in Hindu rituals and religion, few temples are solely devoted to his worship. The majority of these temples, where the Sun had held the Sanctum’s highest dignity, are now in ruins. There are only a few active Sun temples where worship is still practiced today.<\/p>\n
