East entrance

The entrance is flanked by casually seated (sukhasana) images of the nidhi-purushas or personifications of divine attributes. Next to them are figures of river goddesses. On the right the image of Ganga is missing, replaced by a perforated screen. These vertical panels are surmounted by unusual animal pediments typical of this temple.
