The shrine has a five-layered tower which shares the triple-segmented style. The center of the tower holds a spectacular rectangular panel with the image of Lord Shiva as the cosmic dancer. The doorway is tastefully decorated with motifs including that of the holy snake. The lintel above the doorway bears the images of the nine planets, strongly linked with traditional Indian beliefs.
