The Pachhali Marghat group in Kadwaha has two surviving temples both facing west. They used to be a part of a much larger collection of monuments, but all except two are lost and these appear separated into two compounds as a modern era road passes between them.
The larger of the two temples is dedicated to Vishnu and the smaller surviving was originally dedicated to Shiva in this hub of 9th-century Shaiva monasteries.
The Vishnu temple has a pancharatha plan. It has a pillared mandapa, an antarala and a garbhagriha. Inside the sanctum is a Shiva linga, but this is a recent addition during restorations. The lalatabimba has a Garudasana-Vishnu, with Shiva and Brahma on the sides of the lintel. The temple has Navagrahas and Saptamatrikas in the recesses. Other artwork in this temple include Dasavataras, Varaha, Narasimha and Vamana.
The Shiva temple is to the north-west of the Vishnu temple, across the road. The dvianga temple sits on a plain bhitta. The temple has a mandapa and garbhagriya, but its sikhara was torn down by someone in its history. The lalatabimba has Uma-Maheshvara, while Brahma-Saraswati and Lakshmi-Narayana are on the sides of the lintel. Rudras and Navagrahas are in the recesses. Other artwork include Varuna, Chamunda, Ganesha and a notable Hariharahiranyagarbha.
