3. Pandharpur and nearby Vithal temples.
Look at the Shikharas with elaborately carved figures.
First one is a smaller shrine but very old, likely of Hemada Pant’s time, and other is newer one in the main parisara, still preserving the Hemadapanti design.

4. Bhimashankar Mahadev, Khed.
Unique thing about this excellent temple’s architecture is a whole garland of human figurine (siddhas and Yogis) sculpted on the entire circumference of the main shrine’s shikhara as if doing a continuous parikrama.

7. Hemadapanti Siddheshvar Mahadev,
Hottal Degloor, Nanded
The beautiful temple carries Hemadri’s name, and it is quite likely from his time as well.
Large figurine on the walls and in the nooks. Heavy elaboration and decorations everywhere
