The Shankaragaurishvara temple is a 9th-century shrines complex in Pattan dedicated to Shiva. It is about 40 kilometers northwest of Srinagar. Now in ruins, it was also surrounded by a colonnaded peristyle, most of which remains unexcavated. The standing sanctum structure has a square plan and the mandapa has some Hindu artwork. The Shankaragaurishvara mandir is mentioned in Kalhana's Rajatarangini.

This is a JPEG format plan and architectural drawing of a historic Indian temple or monument. The relative scale and relative dimensions in this architectural drawing are close to the actual but neither exact nor complete. The plan illustrates the design and layout, but some intricate details or parts of the temple may not be shown. In cases where exact measurements were not feasible, the drawing uses best approximations and rounds the best measurements feasible.
