A woman and a dog were standing in front of Dattatreya Temple which was originally built in 1427. The entrance was flanked by the stone statue of soldiers and Garuda was perched on the pole. It is said to have been built using a timber from a single tree.
The woman and the dog seemed to look all around carefully. They might be also guarding the temple from the evil along with the statues while they disguised.
