#ChandramouleshwaraTemple.

It is an 11th-century Shiva temple with Chalukyan #architecture in Unkal (Hubballi), #Karnataka, India. The temple has a square plan architecture with four entrances from the cardinal directions, while illustrating the sandhara plan found in Sanskrit texts on architecture. It originally had a Chaturmukha Linga in the center of the temple and many more mantapas, but the surviving structure is much smaller. The temple preserves an early example of a relatively uncommon Hindu architecture. The temple is also notable for how it integrates the artwork of Shaivism, Vaishnavism, Shaktism and Vedic deities together.
