The Sun's core can reach 10 to 22.5 million°F. The surface temperature is approximately 9,900°F (5,500°C).
The Earth's core is estimated to be between 3000 and 5000 degrees Celsius.

For some unknown reason not yet explained the gas escaping from the core heated up near the surface and again cool down. The hottest place on the sun is just very near below the surface
My thinking is even though at core there is more heat the density is high and at the surface the density is very low. so all the escaping energy heats up the thin layer.

The core of the Sun, or the center of the Sun, is 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The surface of the Sun is cooler than the core of the Sun. Its temperature is 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit.

The Sun by a long way

The sun, by a long shot. It is heated by fusion, whereas the Earth's core is heated by radioactive fission. Fusion liberates a LOT more energy.

Sun, by far
