- Descripción:
- The mandapa (pillared hall) of the Hazareshwar Temple is a small square open hall which stands on a low base, supported by four pillars positioned at its corners. These pillars feature square bases adorned with depictions of deities. The shaft of the pillars is intricately carved with male deities, musicians, dancers, and surasundaris (celestial damsels). Transitioning into an octagonal shape, then into sixteen facets and circular, the shaft culminates with an abacus supporting bharavahaka (load bearers) brackets, which in turn uphold the lintel. The mandapa's ceiling, square in shape, is exquisitely carved. There is an idol of Nandi housed at the centre of the mandapa.

- Descripción:
- The Hazareshwar Temple, also known as the Swarnajaleshwar Temple, houses a Shiva linga in the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). This linga is positioned on a square yonipatta (womb-shaped base) and intricately carved with numerous smaller lingas. It is this unique feature of the linga, adorned with hundreds and thousands of lingas, that lends the temple its name, the Hazareshwar Temple.
