- Descripción:
- The lalatbimba (lintel) of the doorframe is relatively plain, featuring three large panels placed at the centre and two on the extreme ends depicting the trinity—Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma. In the central panel, an ethereal sculpture of Shiva in the form of Nataraja is carved. To the proper left, a sculpture of Vishnu is carved, while to the proper right, a sculpture of Brahma is represented. Nataraja had multiple arms, now all broken, with an elegant posture and glorious face drawing attention. He is accompanied by two musicians who are playing musical instruments. The charming figure of Vishnu is shown holding shankha (conch), gada (mace) and chakra (discuss). The three-faced Brahma is also carved with four arms, now broken, with his vahana (vehicle or mount) at the bottom.

- Descripción:
- One of the most interesting sculptures is of a dhvaja vahaka (flag bearer), placed at the shikhara (superstructure) of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). The bearded male figure is shown standing, facing the shikhara, with one leg placed on the floor and the other placed on a lotus pedestal. He is wearing a crown and is heavily adorned with jewels. He is carrying a sword which can be seen hanging from his waist. His hands are shown one above the other, holding a hollow circular disk, which must have been used to hold the dhvaja (flag) of the temple.

- Descripción:
- The frontal pediment of the shikhara (superstructure) of the mukhamandapa (front porch) depicts locked doors, which is the most distinct element of the pediment, used here as a decorative motif. These closed doors represent the types of wooden doors that were used in the region during this period. The depiction is noteworthy as it also depicts a variety of heavy locks which were used in the old havelis of Rajasthan. Such representation of doors and locking systems is rarely found in temples, making the presence of these elements as decorative motifs in this temple particularly unique.

- Descripción:
- The garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum), square in shape from the inside, features a distinct round or ghata (pot-shaped) linga, from which the temple derives its name, Ghateshvara. On the rear wall, a niche with an udgama (pediment of interconnected chaitya dormers) is fixed, housing a figure of a deity (currently without a head). Adjacent to it is another sculpture of a four-armed Goddess. The sculpture of this Goddess may belong to a later period, as her appearance differs from other sculptures in the temple.
