The north-facing elevation of the Suhaveshwar Temple is identical to the south-facing side. The protruding shukanasa, frontal of the shikhara (superstructure), is visible here. It is a semi-circular opening. The topmost portion of the main shikhara is missing. Along the elevation of the temple, the mandapa (pillared hall) shikhara has a row of large ghantikas (aedicules) that cascade from the centre. The base of the mandapa shikhara has a square block with diamond motifs that is topped by a gavaksha (dormer window) design.
