Konark Dance Festival is a five day dance festival held every year in the month of December mostly from 1 to 5 in backdrop of the Sun temple in Konark, Odisha in India. It is one of the biggest dance festivals held in Odisha. ... The Sand festival celebrates sand sculptures produced by skilful sand artists.
Unique even among India's abundant architectural glories, the Sun temple at Konark is now a World Heritage Site. A few kilometers from Puri and Bhubaneshwar, Konark, like Cuttak, was an active port at the time of the wealthy Kalinga kingdom. The Sun God's immense immobile stone chariot was a landmark on the Orissa coast. But the sea has now receded, and this shrine is now surrounded only by the windswept coastal plains dotted with coconut, cashurina, and mango tree.
