A 7th to 8th-century brick temple and its ruins survive in Palari a village about 75 kilometers northeast of Raipur, Chhattisgarh. Known as Siddeshwar temple of Palari, it is notable for its simple spire with rounded upper region, life-size reliefs of goddess Ganga and Yamuna at the sanctum's entrance, relief showing Shiva's wedding and another of Brahma-Vishnu-Mahesh.
The temple has a square plan, its outer walls are carved to depict Hindu legends, and the temple stands next to a small lake. The architectural features such as its gavaska are also notable, just as the numerous pre-7th century versions found in ruins and temples of Malhar (Mallar) village southeast of Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh.
