- Descrizione:
- Closer view of the dikapala (gods of cardinal directions) Kubera in the devakoshtha (niche) along the mandapa (pillared hall) dwarf walls of the Mahanaleshwar Temple. Kubera corresponds to the northern direction. The lower two hands of the deity are broken but the upper two hands hold a nakula (money) bag, one of the distinctive attributes of Kubera. The devakoshtha is composed of two slender pilasters surmounted by a miniature samvarna (pyramid-shaped) variety of shikhara (superstructure). The ghantas (bells) of the shikhara are fronted by a udgama (gavaksha or dormer window design). It rests on a low pedestal made up of multiple mouldings.

- Descrizione:
- A small square shrine is there near the pratoli (entrance gateway) of the western boundary of the Mahanaleshwar temple complex. The structure has a phamsana shikhara (pyramidical superstructure) on a square plan. It was probably built from donations received by pilgrims or in memory of some deceased soul. Several such small temples are scattered in the temple complex.

- Descrizione:
- Seen here are the details of the base plinth and kakshasana (seat backs) vedika (railing) of the lateral transepts of the Mahanaleshwar Temple mandapa (pillared hall). The corner plinth has a devakoshtha (niche) with a sculpture that is likely of Ganga. It is identifiable with the depiction of the makara (crocodile-like creature), which is at the bottom left of the deity. The identification of sculpture of Ganga is identified based on the depiction of the makara (crocodile-like creature), which is at the bottom left of the deity. The introduction of this sculpture to the vedika (railing), which otherwise has the icons of dikapalas (gods of cardinal directions), is noteworthy.

- Descrizione:
- East-facing jangha (wall) of the Mahanaleshwar Temple is similar in scheme to the details on the north-facing one.
