Of these, the temple at Ambarnāth, four miles south-east of Kalyā�, is still in a fair condition. It is regarded as the best and earliest example of the Deccan Style of Architecture. In Inscription No. 17 it is called Śrī-Ambaranātha-devakula and is there connected with the name of the Śilāhāra king Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara Śrī-Chittarājadeva. The temple stands in a hollow on the bank of a small stream at a short distance east of the village Ambarnāth.
