In this episode we talk about the Konark Sun Temple in Odisha, built in the 13th century under King Narasimha Deva I, is a magnificent chariot-shaped structure adorned with 24 intricately carved wheels and pulled by seven horses, symbolizing time and the days of the week. Known as the 'Black Pagoda' due to a legendary magnet that disrupted European compasses, the temple offers a priceless glimpse into the religious, political, and social life of its era. Rabindranath Tagore praised it as a place where the language of stone surpasses that of man—a must-visit historical marvel.
