A user's photo.Amazing ancient Temple tank at Santebennur, Karnatak
The central structure has a cupola designed like a emerging lotus bud.
Apart from the structure in the cent...er, four more can be seen on the surrounding steps, and there are two more - one each on the left & right. The Pushkarani itself is in front of a gallery kind of structure, open towards the Pushkarani, and without any rooms. These structures are built with a mix of stone, bricks & mortar.
Santhebennur: is a village situated from Davangere at 40 km, is famous for a pond called "Pushkarani," locally called "Honda."
