Built during the Gupta period and mentioned in the Puranas, the Sun Temple in Kushinagar is a remarkable Hindu heritage site that adds a distinct dimension to the town's predominantly Buddhist identity. The temple is celebrated for its rare idol of the Sun God carved from Neelmani stone, a special black stone discovered during archaeological excavations between the 4th and 5th centuries. A must-visit for history enthusiasts and devotees exploring the full cultural heritage of Kushinagar.
