Amazing

The layers at the bottom are interesting too. Gajapitha (elephant layer) one can see at the bottom.
Delhi akshardham couldn't recreate this much detail, but they have explained gaja layer very beautifully.

This temple also has a stellate (star shaped) ground pattern as opposed to the panchayatan style that is prevalent pretty much everywhere.

India had a wholesome focus in every field. For someone like me, art is something that is universally appreciable and deserves every bit of our attention and praise as much as Science/math

Creating architectural marvels at that time using primitive technology is a scientific marvel itself, and indicates a knowledge of several concepts of civil engineering which were discovered much later by the west.
