They were known for their unique architectural style, which blended elements from the Dravidian and Nagara styles of temple architecture.<\/p>\n<p>Dravidian architecture is a style of temple architecture that is found in southern India. It is characterized by its use of massive stone blocks, its intricate carvings, and its towering gopurams (gateway towers). Nagara architecture is a style of temple architecture that is found in northern India. It is characterized by its use of red sandstone, its intricate carvings, and its tall shikharas (spires).<\/p>\n<p>The Eastern Chalukyas combined elements of both Dravidian and Nagara architecture to create their own unique style. Their temples are characterized by their use of both red sandstone and granite, their intricate carvings, and their tall shikharas.
