Porch screen and wall decoration
The temple is entered through a porch that leads to the columned mandapa. The upper walls of the porch have rows of perforation. Several friezes of sculpture decorate the rest of the wall. Uppermost is a frieze of erotic scenes, each scene flanked by double pilasters, followed by a row of dieties, each framed by pilasters with pediments. A narrow panel below this has mythological scenes, including a samudra-manthan panel. Next is a lata scroll, followed by a row of warriors on foot and horses.
