Named to be the only operational sun temple in India, this place doesn't live up to the expectation or hype... looks like a very normal temple, although the actual deity seems very old, the temple structure which interestingly resembles orissa temples, seemed pretty simple and recently built or plastered.

It is the only one lord sun temple in the world.it is very famous in srikakulam. From bus stand the auto guy may take 30-50rs.

Just a heaven . What a heavenly place .. Other than that ... What i felt is -maintenance outside the temple is required. -The streets are just not cleanse. -No great parking for the vehicles from mainroad entrance . - the guards near the entrance just doesn't have much training in how to deal with the devotees and their cars . He just denies but allows only localites cars inside the entrance .

Nice place

It's a significant mark of architecture built around a century ago and is now developed for the sake of visitors. It is said that on the day of rathasapthami the rays of the sun directly fall on the feet of God suryanarayna in the temple. Hence the best time to visit in a year is on that day.

Rare temple must visit all there is thing do you want see sun not possible but you see the sun god

One of my favourite temple in Srikakulam district, Arasavalli...Sun god..Sri Suryanarayana swamy vari devalayam... Temple was built by King devendra varma, ruler of the Kalinga dynasty in the 7th century. Many incarnations on the temple walls stood tall for its heritage and culture. On some auspicious days like Rathasapthami, temple is fully crowded by devotees of suryabhagawan. Some of the priests perform suryanamaskarams in a very devotional way.. According to sayings, on Uttarayanam and dakshinayam days even when all the doors of the temple are closed the sun rays enters the main garba gudi and falls on the feet of dietys idol... So people come here, worship God and fulfill their vows...Pls do visit once or twice in your lifetime and take blessings of Swamy...

All the precautions are being taken amidst this pandemic, by the temple management.

Blessed place... One must compulsory to visit this place... And any kind of obstructions and health issues... In ones life.. Will get some solutions to overcome... Mind will be peaceful. Vitality in life will be entered ?

Temple was soo good and sun raise touching the idel was my life time memory. That was an unexpected thing because it happens only yearly twice in the months of March and October which was not in our planned schedule. People can visit this temple any time from morning 6 am to 8 pm daily temple was closed from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm. Hotels near it is not that recommend. You can stay in Srikakulam which is 4 to 5 km away. Transportation is good but you will only find autos for means of transportation which are at very reasonable price.

Great devotional place to see the real god. Discipline around with staff who can guide you to have a great darshan.

Very powerful SUN TEMPLE. Sun rays will touch the mail diety on certain days which are considered to be auspicious

It's only one famous Lord Surya temple in the State

Peaceful place.. Temple premises are really good and has a devine atmosphere. History says the god here is so powerful.. A nice place to visit..

The place is getting attention from all over Telugu States. Sanitation is the main concern. Priests are over reactive to pilgrims. Don't wait for the worst. Prepare Now.
