Rama Chandi temple
Positioned in direction of the southwest of Sun temple (mandir), is
the Rama Chandi temple. It has been named after Goddess Rama Chandi.
Nonetheless, there's lot of puzzlement over the presiding deity of
the temple (mandir). Some people are of the opinion that the temple
is dedicated to Goddess Rama Chandi and because of this it is called
Rama Chandi temple. But, there is another part of people who say
that the temple is dedicated to Goddesses Mayadevi, the wife of Sun
God.
It is due to this cause that, the temple is typically referred to as
the Mayadevi temple (mandir) also. The primary drawback is that
there is no proof that can assist in fixing the confusion prevalent
over the deity of the Rama Chandi temple of Konark. However, in the
present occasions, it's generally referred to as the Mayadevi
temple. Some people additionally consider that the temple (mandir)
was truly dedicated to Surya, the Sun God.
