See this- the majestic Sun Temple of Konark? It was built as a gratitude to Surya Deva, the Sun God of Hindus. The Surya idol used to remain hung in mid-air, an architectural marvel of that period.

The Sun Temple of Konark is not just a temple dedicated to any Hindu deity. It is the symbol of glory of victory of Hindu forces over the Muslim forces, and that the glory was as bright as the rays of the Sun God.
The glorious victory of Hindus was like a light which fought off the darkness of the Islamic rule. The Sun Temple of Konark was built to commemorate the victory of Odia Hindu forces against the Islamic Bengal Sultanate.
