Deo Situated on the National Highway no. 2, 150 kms from Patna near Gaya in the Aurangabad district, Deo is the most ancient of all sites where the legendary King Aila of Prayaga ( Allahabad ) was cured of leprosy. Here stands a beautifully ornamented Sun temple housing an image of the deity in its sanctum. The tower bears fiery symbols of Surya besides figures of other deities. The temple surprisingly faces the West, unlike traditional Sun temples which face the East. An interesting legend explains this- His might being challenged by Muslim invaders, the Sun God turned His face to the West to save the honour of His faithful devotees. Nearby is Jamur, the village of the renowned Mayura Bhatta - poet laureate of King Harshvardhana who was cured of leprosy here, and later wrote the famous Surya Shataka a hundred stanzas in praise of the Sun.
