Abstract

Situated within the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir, the Martanda Sun Temple stands as a rare example of a solar place of worship within India. Despite its current state of dilapidation, the temple manages to preserve its magnificence and regal appearance. The chronicles surrounding the temple's past encompass a variety of narratives, spanning from ancient myths to documented historical accounts within literary traditions. This study endeavors to delve into the architectural accomplishments of the Martanda Temple, amalgamating verbal legacies with findings from on-site archaeological exploration
