Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Sun Temple Katarmal is located in Village Katarmal near Almora (12km) on Almora Bageshwar Road near Kosi village (1.5km) at 2116m above sea level on a beautiful hill top. Other than Katarmal Sun Temple, there are four other famous Sun Temples in India; they are Konark Sun Temple, Orissa, Modhera Sun Temple, Gujarat, Martand Sun Temple, J&K and finally in Osia, Rajasthan.
We parked our car in designated area near the temple and climbed the temple on the paved path through the village life. One should keep drinking water while going up as there are no shops on the way and in the temple complex. Once you reach in temple complex, you will feel the divinity and spirituality all around. Fresh air, no noise, cleanliness and views of the valley makes it a perfect place to sit, relax and do meditation (Dhayana) here.
Being Sun temple, as expected, the first ray of the Sun falls on the Shivlinga inside the main temple. Katarmal Sun Temple is stone based and was constructed by the Katyuri King Katarmal in the 9th century by using a mixture of lime and lentil paste. As written on the Information Stone Panel, there are 45 miniature small shrines in small groups clustering around temples around the main shrine seems to be constructed at different periods. The main deity Surya here is called as Burhadita or Vraddhaditya. Other deities like Shiva-Parvathi and Lakshmi-Narayana are also established in this temple complex. The carved wooden doors and panels of the main shrine were transported to the National Museum, Delhi, after an idol from the 10th century was stolen. The temple has carvings on walls and panels and is maintained by ASI.
We came here in the afternoon after visiting from Jageshwar Temples and proceeded to Club Mahindra Binsar via a short adventurous driving route through unknown villages. We travelled to Village Maler near Guldaar Valley on Almora-Someshwar-Kausani highway then took right turn crossing the Kosi River on 12km drive (out of this last 6.5km were kachha road) on Patali Bager- Thapinia Motor Marg to reach adjacent to Club Mahindra resort on Binsar Bageshwar Road. This short cut is not recommended during rains.

Beautiful architecture that takes you centuries back into the rich heritage of India. Away from the city along the greens of the Almora.

The construction itself is worth a visit. Made from stones, there is the main temple and smaller temples around it in the same complex. The site also gives a great view of the valley.

A scenic drive to the location brings you to the lovely temple that resembles Konark. Its a climb from the car park to the temple, but the path is paved and there are benches to rest on the way. We went on a Sunday, so the temple was quite crowded and so, we did not get much opportunity to observe the architecture much. Nevertheless, it was a great experience visiting this very neatly kept heritage site.

An ancient marvel on the hill top. A very scenic drive takes one to the Sun temple, its an ASI monument now & is a brilliant piece of architecture from the era it belongs to.
A good place to enjoy with family.

Based off the Almora Ranikhet road , the temple dating back to 9th century built by a Katyuri king . It has 44 small temples around the main Sun Temple . Since we reached the site late in the evening we couldn't see the minute details in fading light . But could gauge the great architecture and feel the magnificence of the temple complex . A must for travellers .

Wonderful Sun (Surya) temple complex in a incredible location facing east to catch the first morning rays of the sun. An important architectural structure, well preserved after an excellent restoration work. The famous carved main temple doors had to be moved to the National Museum in Delhi due to an idol theft in the past.
Unfortunately the area surrounding the temple complex is dirty, garbage thrown here and there, very disappointing considering the beauty and sanctity of the place.

From Hotel Himsagar a Swift cost me 900 bucks. My after-thought is that it would have been better to try from the market area provided you have 3 or less tourists.
