About Vesara style ?

The Vesara style of architecture is a blend of the Dravidian and Nagara styles of architecture and is primarily found in the western and northern parts of South India. It is characterized by its ornate and elaborate carvings and sculptures, as well as its use of decorative elements such as arches, domes, and turrets. The Vesara style also features a distinct use of horseshoe-shaped arches and curved eaves, which are not commonly found in the Dravidian style.

The Vesara style temples are often characterized by a complex and multi-leveled layout, with several mandapas and shrines. They also have a large central hall or "maha mandapa" that is usually surrounded by smaller shrines. The temple towers or "shikharas" in Vesara style are typically taller and more ornate than those in Dravidian style, and are often adorned with intricate stucco work and sculptures.

The Hoysaleswara Temple, the Dodda Basappa Temple, the Mahadeva Temple, and the Someshwara Temple are examples of Vesara Style architecture.
