The site, which is encircled by a wall, supposedly consisted of eight
temples of different size of which in the present time only five
are clearly recognisable.
Later, a smaller temple was added above the Cella of the main temple,
which is still in use today. It is also interesting to note that the
different types of the single edificial structures are still clearly
recognisable. In particular, in the main temple the diverse variations
of the Mandalas are visible and legible both in the squarish form of
the floor plans as well as in the multifaceted realisation of the idea
of the interior and exterior ambulatories.
