- Description:
- Details of the south-facing side of the shikhara (superstructure). The cardinal bands of the shikhara have their simulations, known as the urah shringas (miniature shikharas) cascading the mulashrinaga or the main shikhara. The urah shringas have ribbed edges, similar to the mulashringas. Since they diminish in height and emanate out of each other they present a conical cascading effect.

- Description:
- Seen here is the west-facing elevation of the Bhandasar Temple. The exterior walls of the temple are divided into five bays, of which the central bay is wider than the two bays flanking it on either side. The doorways of these walls when open, make the interiors of the temple semi-open and light up the interiors. The blind foliated arches of each bay have rectangular patterns that might have had paintings at some point but at present, only the outlines of these rectangles survive. At the centre of the plinth, there is a small chhatri (memorial) which was probably added to the temple later.

- Description:
- A closer view of the small chhatri which is attached to the plinth of the temple. This chhatri is probably a memorial which was built here at a later date. It is made of marble stone and the steps connected to its pedestal are painted in the same manner as the main temple plinth.

- Description:
- This is a painting panel on the beams of the mandapa (pillared hall) of the Bhandasar Temple. It is a set of five paintings drawn with the purpose of telling people that what are the wrongdoings that should be avoided. In every painting, a demonic figure is shown punishing the person who has violated moral laws. The five paintings have inscriptions of the acts that Jainism condemns. These are, ‘Kamchesta ka phal, Manushya ko maarne ka phal, chor ko saahaj dene ka phal, Biswas ghat ka phal’ (punishments for indulging in wrong sexual activities, killing a human being, supporting a thief and betrayal).
