- Seen here is the south-facing elevation of the shikhara (superstructure) of the Mahanaleshwar Temple. The front side of the shikhara has an elaborate shukanasa (an ornamented projection over the entrance of the sanctum), with a lion sculpture on top of it. The shukanasa has a niche at its centre and above it is a chaitya (horseshoe-shaped) medallion. The mouldings of the shukanasa are similar to the plinth mouldings of the temple. A noteworthy aspect is the three bhumija aedicules on each side of the shikhara.

- La description:
- This is the north-facing lateral transept that is attached to the mandapa (pillared hall) of the Mahanaleshwar Temple. The plinth of this transept had a chamber with a narrow opening to it. This plinth had four pillars that supported the cantilevered roof of the transept. The inner pillars on the plinth are flanked by perforated jalis (latticed windows). The use of these chambers in the basement cannot be ascertained. But they are commonly found in the temples of this region and time period. These possibly served as spaces for meditation.
