1 Bhaskar Dev Tirtha Sun temple of Deo (Aurangabad) is considered as one of the most popular pilgrimages in Bihar, which is dedicated to Lord Surya.

2 Famous for its immense structure, fine carvings and elaborate sculpture, the temple is 100 feet tall, made of black and red stone.

3 A huge black stone outside the temple has the ancient inscriptions that give information about the temple’s origins and other details.

4 Although, the exact dates of construction are not available, but this inscription states that it was constructed in the Treta Yug - about one and a half lakh years ago.

5 According to a holy verse from Brahmi script, Purkha Ail - the son of Ila started the construction of the temple after recovering three deities from a pit that cured him of leprosy.

6 These three deities represent the three forms of Lord Surya – Udayachal (the rising sun), Madhyachal (the midday sun) and Astachal (the setting sun).


7 The local legends mention that this one-of-a-kind temple was built by Lord Vishwakarma (the architect of Hindu gods) within a night.


8 This historical shrine is the only sun temple that has its main door facing the west, in a way, revering the setting sun and not the usual rising sun.

9 Visiting this temple and the close by lake named Surya Kund is considered very auspicious on every Sunday, especially during the Chatth puja / Adra Nakshatra tithi.


10 According to the belief, offering Arghya (oblation of water) in Surya Kund holds special significance as it fulfills the desires.


11 The temple traditions followed here since ages include the daily recital of Adityahruday Stotra and other rituals offered to Lord Surya.
