Its architecture combines a South Indian Dravidian gateway tower (gopuram) with Rajput and Mughal styles. The colours are vivid and the carvings are intricate. It stands on the north side of the market, and admission is free. Shoes must be removed. The inner sanctum is usually closed to non-Hindus, but the outer courtyard can be visited.
