c30.s1.11

As at Kāśiviśveśvara there were two doors and two porches to this temple—one on the south and one on the east. The latter has been very elaborately decorated with filmy bands of fine carving up the sides, but has been very much destroyed, what remains being encrusted with old whitewash. Before the east door is an extension, roughly built, covering in a colossal bull which faces the shrine.
