Konark Sun Temple ([koɳarəkə]; also Konârak) is a 13th-century Sun Temple 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 and has also featured on various 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.
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.
ARCHITECTURE
The temple was originally built at the mouth of the river Chandrabhaga, but the waterline has receded since then. The temple has been built in the form of a giant ornamented chariot of the Sun god, Surya. It has twelve pairs of elaborately carved stone wheels which are 3 meters wide and is pulled by a set of seven horses (4 on the right and 3 on the left). The temple follows the traditional style of Kalinga architecture. It is carefully oriented towards the east so that the first rays of sunrise strikes the principal entrance. The temple is built from Khondalite rocks.
The original temple had a main sanctum sanctorum (vimana), which was supposedly 70 m tall. Due to the weight of the super structure and weak soil of the area the main vimana fell in 1837. The audience hall (Jagamohana), which is about 30 m tall, still stands and is the principal structure in the surviving ruins. Among the structures, which have survived to the current day, are the dance hall (Nata mandira) and dining hall (Bhoga mandapa).
The Konark temple is also known for its erotic sculptures of maithunas.
Two smaller ruined temples have been discovered nearby. One of them is called the Mayadevi Temple and is located southwest from the entrance of the main temple. It is presumed to have been dedicated to Mayadevi, one of the Sun god's wives. It has been dated to the late 11th century, earlier than the main temple. The other one belongs to some unknown Vaishnava deity. Sculptures of Balarama, Varaha and Trivikrama have been found at the site, indicating it to be a Vaishnavite temple. Both temples have their primary idols missing.
A collection of fallen sculptures can be viewed at the Konark Archaeological Museum which is maintained by the Archaeological Survey of India.
HISTORY
ANCIENT TEXTS
According to Bhavishya Purana and Samba Purana, there may have been a sun temple in the region earlier than current one, dating to the 9th century or earlier. The books mention three sun temples at Mundira (possibly Konark), Kalapriya (Mathura), and Multan.
According to the scriptures, Samba, the son of Krishna, was cursed with leprosy. He was advised by the sage, Kataka, to worship the sun god to cure his aliment. Samba underwent penance for 12 years in Mitravana near the shores of Chandrabhaga. Both the original Konark temple and the Multan temple have been attributed to Samba.
The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea (1st Century CE) mentions a port called Kainapara, which has been identified as current day Konark.
SUN DIAL AND TIME
The wheels of the temple are sundials which can be used to calculate time accurately to a minute including day and night.
SECOND TEMPLE
According to the Madala Panji, there was another temple in the region. It was built by one Pundara Kesari. He may have been Puranjaya, the 7th century ruler, of the Somavasmi Dynasty.
NARASIMHADEVA I
The current temple is attributed to Narasimhadeva I of the Eastern Ganga Dynasty. His reign spanned from 1238 to 1264 CE. The temple may have been a monument to his victory against Tughral Tughan Khan.
DHARMAPADA´S TALE
According to local folklore, Narasimhadeva I had hired a chief architect called Bisu Maharana to build the temple. After a period of twelve years, a workforce of twelve thousand almost finished the construction. But, they failed to mount the crown stone. The impatient king ordered the temple to be finished in three days or the artisans be put to death. At the time, Bisu Maharana's twelve-year-old son, Dharmapada arrived at the site. Bisu Maharana had never seen his son, as he had left his village when his wife was still pregnant. Dharmapada successfully proposed a solution to mount the crown stone. But, the artisans were still apprehensive that the king will be displeased to learn that a boy succeeded where his best artisans failed. Dharmapada climbed onto the temple and leapt into the water to save his father and his co-workers.
COLLAPSE
There have been several proposed theories for the collapse of the main sanctum. The date of the collapse is also not certain.
The Kenduli copper plates of Narasimha IV (Saka 1305 or 1384 CE) states the temple to be in a perfect state.
In the 16th century Ain-i-Akbari, Abul Fazl also mentions Konark being in a proper state. The account also mentions the cost of construction being 12 years of revenue.
The cause of collapse is also placed on Kalapahad who invaded Odisha in 1568.
In 1627, the then Raja of Khurda had removed the sun idol from Konark and moved it to the Jagannath temple in Puri.
James Fergusson (1808–1886) had the opinion that marshy foundation had caused the collapse. But, the structure has shown no sign of sinking into its foundation. Fergusson, who visited the temple in 1837, recorded a corner of the main sanctum still standing. It also fell down in 1848 due to a strong gale.
According to Percy Brown (1872–1955), the temple was not properly completed and so it collapsed. This contradicts earlier recorded accounts of the temple being in a proper state.
In 1929, an analysis of a moss covered rock estimated the date of abandonment at around 1573.
Other proposed causes include lightning and earthquake.
ARUNA STAMBHA
In the last quarter of the 18th century, when worship had ceased in the temple, the Aruna stambha (Aruna pillar) was removed from the entrance of Konark temple and placed at the Singha-dwara (Lion's Gate) of the Jagannath temple in Puri by a Maratha Brahmachari called Goswain (or Goswami). The pillar is made of monolithic chlorite and is 10.26 m tall . It is dedicated to Aruna, the charioteer of the Sun god.
PRESERVATION EFFORTS
In 1803, requests were made for conservations by the East India Marine Board, but only removal of stones from the site was prohibited by the Governor General. As a result, a part of the main tower, which was still standing, collapsed in 1848.
The then Raja of Khurda removed some stones and sculptures to use in a temple he was building in Puri. A few gateways and some sculptures were destroyed in the process. In 1838, after the depredation of the Raja of Khurda, Asiatic Society of Bengal requested conservation, but the requests were denied and only preventative of human-caused damages were guaranteed. The Raja was forbidden to remove any more stones.
In 1859, Asiatic Society of Bengal proposed moving an architrave depicting the navagraha to the Indian Museum in Calcutta. The first attempt in 1867 was abandoned as the funds ran out.
In 1894, thirteen sculptures were moved to the Indian Museum.
In 1903 when a major excavation was attempted nearby, the then Lieutenant governor of Bengal, J. A. Baurdilon, ordered the temple to be sealed and filled with sand to prevent the collapse of the Jagamohana.
In 1906, casuarina and punnang trees were planted facing the sea to buffer the site against sand-laden winds.
In 1909, the Mayadevi temple was discovered while removing sand and debris.
The temple was granted World Heritage Site status by the UNESCO in 1984.

1657 Market Street is an example of a residential hotel constructed in San Franciscoʹs western Mid‐Market area in the wake of the 1906 Earthquake. The disaster destroyed most of central San Francisco, displacing thousands of local residents. After the disaster, builders responded to the need for housing by building hundreds of multi‐story, masonry apartment buildings and residential hotels. These residential hotels continued to house many of San Franciscoʹs predominantly single‐male, working‐class workforce until after the Second World War. The property also is a moderately well preserved Venetian Revival style residential hotel constructed in the Market Street Corridor during the 1906 reconstruction period.
Buildings have been named many ways: by the owner of the building, by the business operator (for example, the Fallon, Allen, Crockett, Eastman, Raymond and Whiteside Apartments), for fashion (the Ascot), and for the romance of California’s Hispanic past (Miramar).
1657 Market Street is located on a 25’x124’ lot on the south side of Market Street, between Brady and Gough Streets, with a rear elevation facing Stevenson Street. Built in 1911, 1657 Market Street is a five‐ story, reinforced concrete and timber‐frame residential hotel with ground floor retail designed in the Venetian Revival style.
The rectangular plan building is clad in scored stucco and is capped by a flat roof. The primary façade 1657 Market "Hotel Ascot Furnished Rooms" Faded signage on a five story SRO hotel built in 1911. (between 12th/Franklin & Gough Streets)
Next door is the 1911 Ascot Hotel at 1657 Market Street, an example of Venetian Gothic Revival style from the Hladik and Thayer design firm. It was built for a soap company, then a plumbing supply company. www.foundsf.org/index.php?title=Bound_To_Fall:_The_Hub_Ne...
Continuing east along Market Street, there is a pair of five-story, mixed-use buildings containing retail on the ground floor and residential above. Hladik & Thayer designed the Hotel Ascot at 1657 Market Street in the Renaissance Revival style. Built in 1911, it is a contributor to the locally designated Market Street Masonry Historic District (Figure 9). commissions.sfplanning.org/hpcpackets/2015-005848ENV_Alte...
Stop 4 - 1657 Market Street Historic name: “Ascot Hotel” Architect: Hladik and Thayer.
Style: Classical and Venetian Gothic Revival
Construction type: Reinforced concrete with stucco exterior Date built: 1911
History: The building was built for the G.D. Lucy Co., a soap manufacturing company with a plant on San Bruno Avenue. The Security Plumbing Supply Co. occupied the storefront in the 1930s. The partnership between Hladik and Thayer was dissolved in 1912. As an architect, John C. Hladik (1872-1945) specialized in apartment buildings.
Parts of the building to observe: This three-part building has a storefront for a base, four floors of residential hotel rooms above, and a bold and exotic cornice at the top, designed in the “Venetian” style. It is made of pressed metal. Below the cornice, the top floor features a row of five windows that are recessed from the front wall. Each window at the top floor is flanked by half-columns called pilasters. The middle three floors have typical projecting bay windows which were found in most of San Francisco apartment buildings during this period. Each bay window is topped with a decorative sheet metal cornice. The storefront has the original transom window above the display windows, and an elaborate surround that frames the storefront. Scrolled brackets are found on the underside of the bay windows at the first floor. On the west side of the building, there is an outline of the top two-stories of the adjacent building that were taken down following the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.

In 1894, the land was part of a larger lot owned by the Pacific Improvement Co. In 1899, the land was occupied by a mixed‐use building with three small shops, and a two‐story residence above. Neighboring properties were similarly developed. The area was destroyed by the fires related to the 1906 disaster. Market Street Masonry Discontiguous District: Revised Draft Designation Report September 19, 2012 37
By 1909, the larger lot was split, the subject site was then owned by George D. and Robert Lucy. The building was built in 1911 for the G.D. Lucy Co., a soap manufacturing company, with a plant on San Bruno Avenue. The firm of Hladik & Thayer, architects for the building, was well‐known as apartment and hotel designers in the city, and was in high demand after the 1906 Earthquake.
The 1915 Sanborn map shows the current building with its current name, the Hotel Ascott. The 1919 Sanborn and Land Use map indicates that the ground floor was occupied by a “barber pool.” In 1921, the commercial space was occupied by the Fresno Rug Maintenance Company as an office and shipping room. Charles Cates was the owner from 1921 to at least 1935. By 1935, the building was owned by George D. and emma M. Lucy, and by 1946 it was owned by John S. and Mary W. Gang. The Security Plumbing Supply Co. occupied the storefront in the 1930s to about 1953. In 1936, one listed occupant of the hotel was Daniel Hayes, who listed his occupation as a builder. At some point after 1953, the first story storefront was sealed. In 1964, the front door was replaced, and the metal marquise was removed.
1657 Market Street retains a majority of its design and construction detail to accurately convey both the characteristics of the residential hotel building type and the Venetian revival style as applied to this building type. The urban interpretation of the Venetian Revival style incorporated ornamental details such as large detailed cornices visually supported by modillions, stucco scored to resemble masonry, ornamental plaster detailing, fluted columns and pilasters, and banks of windows within an arcade. The adaptation of these forms into the residential hotel is well‐illustrated at 1657 Market Street, with its paneled spandrels, double‐hung windows, engaged pilasters and arcade windows at the fifth floor, entablature with dropped brackets and molded frieze. 1657 Market Street embodies the distinctive characteristics of the mid‐size residential hotel building type and the Venetian Revival style applied to that building type.
faces north and is two bays wide. The first floor features a historic plate glass storefront in the left bay with a stucco base and solid wood door. Portions of the plate glass have been broken and boarded with plywood. The prism glass transom remains intact. The right bay contains the recessed entrance to the hotel, fitted with a modern, glazed wood door and sidelights, each with a metal mesh security system. An embossed metal band frames the storefront and residential entry. A fabric awning shelters the slightly recessed residential entry.
Semi‐hexagonal bay windows in both bays clad in galvanized iron characterize the second through fourth stories. The bays have paneled spandrels and projecting cornices. The fifth story differs from the lower floors and features a galvanized iron arcade front with five openings separated by pilasters. Four openings feature a single window each. The central opening is blind.
The windows have a continuous sill and are outlined with coping. The windows have a variety of sash types. Original one‐over‐one light, double‐hung wood windows (with 4:5 ratio upper to lower sash dimensions) are Figure 14 ‐ 1657 Market Street elevation Figure 13 ‐ 1657 Market Street storefront detail Market Street Masonry Discontiguous District: Revised Draft Designation Report September 19, 2012 13 found on the third and fifth floors as well as the sides of the bays on the fourth floor. A metal‐frame sliding sash is located on the central window openings of the fourth floor. Vinyl sash windows are located on the second floor. The facade terminates in a galvanized iron entablature with five wide dropped brackets aligning with the fifth floor arcade and a molded frieze.
The stucco and galvanized sheet metal‐clad rear elevation on Stevenson Street features solid wood doors and a divided light steel sash on the ground floor. The second through fifth floors each feature a single sash door to the western edge, and two projecting bays. There is no ornament. The façade terminates in a plain parapet. Windows are aluminum except on the sides of the right bay on the third through fifth floors. The building appears to be in fair to good condition.
Originally constructed with a simple lobby, staircase and passenger elevator lead to the residential floors. The rooms for residents featured a closet and in‐room sink. Three toilets and two baths are shared between the residents on each floor. Rooms face either onto Market Street, Stevenson Street, or one of three interior light courts. The basement was designed largely for storage for the commercial tenant; however, a shared trunk room was provided to the residents.
Alterations include the removal of the marquise above the residential entrance; replacement of the entry doors; boarding up of the storefront plate glass windows; replacement of a portion of the original window sash; and removal of the metal cresting above the cornice.
The comparatively light weight, low cost and malleable character of galvanized iron, best seen at 1670, 1657 and 1693 Market Street, is also used for the facing of bay windows, spandrels, and for string courses, pediments, pilasters, and other ornament.
The lobby may have any combination of columns, paneling, beamed or coffered and corniced ceiling, mirrors, a graceful staircase, marble or decorative tile paving, benches and plant stands, chandeliers and sconces. Many of these features are found at 150 Franklin, and 1649 Market Street. Alternatively, the lobby may have none of these things, as in the apartment building at 1670 Market and the cheaper residential hotels at 1657 and 1693 Market.
As expected, the lowest construction cost buildings were the smaller apartments and hotel buildings at 1657, 1666, 1693 Market and the commercial building at 1687 Market, each at or under $30,000.
1657 Market Street has undergone minor alterations. The first story storefront is partially boarded but intact. Removal of original entrance doors and metal marquise, replacement with a contemporary glazed wood door and sidelights, removal of approximately half of the original windows at the upper stories, and the replacement of some double‐hung wood windows with contemporary aluminum or vinyl sash sliding and double hung windows have not affected the integrity of the resource. Overall, it retains the characteristics for which it is architecturally and historically significant.
1657 Market Street Character defining features include: its five‐story height and rectangular massing, brick cladding, intact lattice transom at the former storefront, multi‐story canted bays, approximately fifty percent of the original double‐hung, wood‐sash windows, paneled spandrels and projecting cornices at the bays, a distinctive fifth story fenestration pattern including a pair of arched window openings with double‐hung, wood sash in the left and right bays, and a blind window opening in the center bay, all divided with pilasters, a continuous sill and outlined with coping, and a cornice with dropped brackets and a molded frieze.

John Carl Hladik (1866 ‐ 1928) and O.R. Thayer (1883‐unknown) had an architectural practice partnership primarily designing apartment buildings and some single‐family homes, hotels and office buildings. Thayer was first employed by the Reid Brothers. When the partnership dissolved in 1913, each began a sole practice, while Thayer also managed two large ranches and other family businesses. Hladik and Thayer also designed the Reynolds Apartments at 795 Geary St. (1912), Hotel Garland at 505 O’Farrell Street (1913), and an auto showroom at 601 Turk St. (1913) influenced by Grecian bank buildings. All designs the partners produced in this period were of masonry construction, mostly residential apartments designed with restrained style.
