Photograph of a detached shrine in the court of the temple complex at Belloor. The structure is highly decorated with stone carvings which represent human figures, Indian gods, geometric patterns and carved pilasters. The architectural details are of the same high quality as on the principal temple. The shrine remains unfinished.
The temple of Belloor was dedicated to the worship of the Indian god Vishnu and stood within a large architectural complex, incorporating shrines and porches. -
