Konark Sun Temple
Konark Sun Temple ((:koɳarəkə); also Konârak) is a 13th-century Sun Temple〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official website )
〕 at Konark in Odisha, India. It is believed that the temple was built by king Narasimhadeva I of Eastern Ganga Dynasty around 1250 CE. The temple is in the shape of a gigantic chariot elaborately carved stone wheels, pillars and walls. A major part of the structure is now in ruins. The temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.〔 It is also featured on NDTV's list of Seven Wonders of India and Times of India's list of Seven Wonders of India.
==Etymology==
The name Konark derives from the combination of the Sanskrit words, ''Kona'' (corner) and ''Arka'' (sun), in reference to the temple which was dedicated to the Sun god Surya.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/246/ )〕
The monument was also called the ''Black Pagoda'' by European sailors. In contrast, the Jagannath Temple in Puri was called the ''White Pagoda''. Both temples served as important landmarks for the sailors.〔
