The Padi Kavali
Maha Dwara or Outer Gopuram stands on a quadrangular base.
Its architecture is that of the
later Chola period. The inscriptions on the gopuram
belong to 13th century. There are a number of stucco
figures of Vaishnava gods like Hanuman,
Kevale Narasimha and Lakshmi Narasimha
on the gopuram.
