The Dakshinaarka Temple, also known as the Sun Temple, is an ancient shrine in Gaya, Bihar, dedicated to the Sun God, Surya Devta.

Devotees make offerings near the Surya Kunda or Dakshina Maanas tank in front of the temple. The temple's simple architecture features a dome-shaped top and is located close to the Vishnupad Temple.
It is a place of worship for many, especially on Sundays when hundreds of pilgrims visit to honor the Sun God.
