Constructed of laterite and brick with carved lintels of sandstone, the complex is surrounded by the partially ruined wall of a 2.5m wide gallery with windows. Inscriptions found here date from the 11th century, when this site was known as Suryagiri. The wooden doors to the sanctuary in the center of the complex, which open to the east, are decorated with carvings of figures standing on pigs. Inside the sanctuary are statues of the Buddha.
