The temple architecture reflect features of Sultanate and Mughal architecture, such as, structure and symmetric arrangement of the four towers in the corner. However, instead of dome or a tower, these four corner tower are built around geometrical shape of the cosmos.[5]

This temple also has a 108 feet Manasthamb (tower of pride).
