The mandapa (pillared hall) of the Mandaleshwar Mahadev Temple is square on plan. It has lateral wings to its south and north sides. Seen here is the exterior of the mandapa, the south-facing lateral wing. This wing is a semi-open space. Its two front pillars support a protruding roof. The exterior walls of the mandapa do not have any sculptures. At the jangha (wall) level, there are two decorative bands: the first is a foliage motif and the second is a band of kirtimukhas (face of glory).
