The entrance door of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) of the Ganesha Temple features multiple shakhas (vertical bands), which are plain. The garbhagriha is a small square chamber with the idol of Ganesha. The sanctum is devoid of any ornamentation except for the bharvahaka (load or weight bearer).
