What is Nagara style of architecture?
Nagara temples have two distinct features: in the planning and in the elevation. In plan, the temple is a square with a number of graduated projections in the middle of each side giving a cruciform shape with a number of re-entrant angles on each side. In elevation, a Sikhara, i.e., tower gradually inclines inwards in a convex curve. The projections in the plan are also carried upwards to the top of the Sikhara and, thus, there is strong emphasis on vertical lines in elevation, called Rekha Sikhara.
The Nagara style is widely distributed over a greater part of India, exhibiting distinct verities and ramifications in lines of evolution and elaboration according to each locality. An example of Nagara architecture is the Kandariya Mahadeva Temple, the largest and loftiest temple of theKhajuraho, with its mature planning, designing and dimensions. It has superb sculptural embellishment and architectural elaboration and is amongst the most evolved and finished.
