The temple complex is enclosed within a compound about 261 m by 164 m. At the eastern entrance is an isolated pillared hall (bhoga mandira) built on a richly decorated platform, some believing it to be a nata mandira (dance hall). To its west is an open space leading to the porch (jagamohana) which, from the base to the top, stands to about 39 m.
