67[172] Pillars of the Ganesha temple


The second of the Ganesha statues is almost twice the height of the Sasive Kalu Ganesha and is called  "Kadale Kalu Ganesha" (Gramseed Ganesha). This idol is now damaged but is provided with a Sanctum and an open pillared mantapa.  The tall, slender, basically square type of pillars are of pleasing proportions and have miniature relief carved on their four faces.
