Summary

Description
English: Jambulinga Temple, Pattadakal. This is practically the "twin" of Kaddasimbeshvara Temple just to the north, although the Jambulinga doorway guardians are missing. The tower's curving ribs are decorated with horseshoe-shaped blind arches. On the front (east) face of the tower is a large panel of Shiva dancing with Nandi and Parvati. A similar panel on the Kaddasimbeshvara tower is heavily damaged.
