c10.s5.9

Standing out in front of this temple, and facing it, is the ruined temple of Bāleśvara. It is a picturesque pile of ruins, and looks particularly fine in the evening, backed up with the setting sun and the far-away windings of the Bhīmā. Besides these, the other temples here are those of Rāmeśvara, Kholeśvara (called also Malikārjuna) and Bhairavnātha, originally a Jaina temple. There is nothing particularly striking about these. They are sadly ruined and dismantled, the shrine only, in each case, standing, the rest being heaps of ruins.
