The developed Candela temples at Khajuraho, like those of other medieval Indian styles, had fixed and almost uniform elevational proportions. Thus, each temple was erected on an elevated platform (10 to 12 ft.) which was almost equal in height to the adhiṣṭhāna comprising upapīṭha (an optional member), pīṭha and vedibandha.
