Pic-2

The floor plan shows a symmetrical layout, typical of Hindu temple architecture, with the main sanctum (Garbhagriha) at the core and various surrounding spaces.

Central Axis: The temple is designed along a central axis running north-south 
Mandap (Porch/Hall):

Sabha Mandap (Assembly Hall): This is the largest central hall, measuring 32'0" x 32'0". This space is typically used by devotees for gathering, prayers, and rituals.
Mandap (Main Porch): Located at the entrance to the Sabha Mandap, measuring 15'0" x 10'0". This serves as an antechamber.

Garbhagriha (Sanctum Sanctorum):

  • The innermost sanctum, measuring 7'0" x 7'0", where the main deity (presumably Shani Dev) is installed.

Parikrama (Circumambulatory Path):

  • A circumambulatory path surrounds the Garbhagriha, measuring 3'0" wide on three sides (north, west, and south). This path allows devotees to perform pradakshina (circumambulation) around the deity.
  • South Side Entrance: A dedicated entrance on the south side, measuring 2'6" x 6'0", providing access to the Parikrama area.

3D Design Analysis (Differences in Images):
  • Both 3D renders show a multi-tiered temple structure with distinct architectural elements.

General Features:
  • Shikhara/Vimana: A tall, conical or pyramidal tower

  •  (White Temple): This render shows a temple primarily in white or light-colored stone, giving it a serene and pure appearance. This often suggests the use of marble or white sandstone.

  • (Pink/Reddish Temple): This render depicts the temple in a reddish-pink hue, suggesting the use of materials like red sandstone or a different type of finished masonry. This gives the temple a warmer and more earthy feel.
