spending considerate amount of time looking from every angle basking in its grand splendor I had my heart's content of ancient wonder art cheers to all the architects and wonderful people who put in so much of dedication into this wonderful piece of art.
For the inscription on the stone slab, it becomes fairly evident that the magnificent temple was completed and consecrated in 1268 A.D. The shrine stands in the middle of a walled compound, around which runs an open verandah with 64 cells. The temple itself, stellar in shape, has three profusely carved pinnacles with a common Navranga and stands on a raised platform. The three sanctums once housed beautifully carved idols of Kesava, Janardhana and Venugopala.
