- Descrizione:
- The mandapa (pillared hall) leads to the antarala (vestibule or antechamber), a shallow passage distinguished by pillars along its sides. From there, one proceeds to the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) of the Undeshwar Temple, featuring a meticulously carved doorframe. This doorframe exhibits a multi-shakha (vertical band or architrave) design, with each shakha adorned with various floral patterns, naga (serpant) figures and stambha (buttress). At the lower part of the doorframe, there are four female figures, two of whom hold kalashas (pitchers) while the other two hold chauris (fly whisks). Following them are four-armed dvarapalas (door guardians), each depicted with their respective attributes. Lastly, there is a figure of Kubera holding a money bag. Above the lalatabimba (lintels) on the doorframe's entablature, Nataraja is positioned at the center, flanked by seated goddesses, with Brahma and Vishnu depicted at the ends.

- Descrizione:
- On the steps and platform of the Mandakini Kund, several inscriptions are discovered in various states of preservation. These inscriptions are written in the Sanskrit language using the Devanagari script. A thorough examination of these inscriptions reveals valuable information, including the name of the temple, Mahakal, and the designation of the reservoir as Mandakini. Additionally, they provide details such as the date of the devotees' visit and their community affiliation. The inscriptions mention the worshipers' practice of visiting the Mahakal Temple and bathing in the Mandakini Kund. Dating from the 13th to the 15th centuries CE, some of these inscriptions specifically mention members of the Kayastha Mathur community.
