Answer 2

sun temple in konark is in form of a chairot.

Legend has it that Samba, the king of Krishna and Jambavati entered the bathing chamber of Krishna's wifes, and was cursed by Krishna with leprosy. It was decreed that he would be relieved of the curse by worshipping the sun God on the sea coast north east of Puri. Accordingly Samba reached this place and discovered an image of Surya seated on the lotus, worshipped him and was relieved of his curse.
