Statues of Lord Ganesha Virupaksha Temple Bhuvaneshwari Temple Temples on the Hemakuta Hill Virupaksha Bazaar Kodanda Rama Temple Achyutaraya Temple Matanga Hill Balakrishna Temple Narasimha Statue Sister Stones Underground Temple Zenana Enclosure Elephant Stables Guards Quarters Hazara Rama Temple Royal Enclosure Durbar Hall King's Palace Dasara Platform Stepped Tank Water Channels Yantroddaraka Anjineya Temple King's Balance Vittala Temple Purandaradas Mantap Queen's Bath Singarada Hebbagilu Noblemen's Palaces The temple stands, within high walls with 3 gateways on the east, south and north. The Temple stands on a strong stone basement with richly carved designs of kings horses, elephants, dancing girls and soldiers on the stone basement around the temple. The Dancing halls and Kalyanamantapas in the corners are equally worth noticing. In front of the temple is a hall with numerous pillars, which are eye, catching. In most of the big pillars, small pillars have been carved in such a way that they produce Saptaswara. Vittala Temple is decorated in side and out side and from top to bottom. In front of the main temple is the Stone Chariot. Though this little stone structure is not carved in a single block of stone, beautiful masonry work between joints is worth appreciation even now.
