The pavilion is made of tall cubical granite pillars and stands on this uneven hilltop with an amazing balance. May be you would not find this any surprising as by this time you’ve already seen enough of Hampi’s style of architecture.
This elevated area is especially notable for the numerous tiny shrines scattered all around. The elevated platforms on either side possibly used by the guards. You can take advantage of its position to do a survey of the locality. Like other elevated locations near by, the Two Storied Gate way is a vantage point to see the river Tungabhadra wriggle through the narrow gorges and then expands to create many tiny boulder islands. Also you can spot the Chandramouleshwara temple located on the other bank of the river and the remains of the ancient bridge leading to it. It is not unusual to see tourist take a temporary halt at this pavilion thanks to the shade offered by it in the middle of a trek path.
A bit towards the north is the King’s Balance and Sugreeva’s Cave a few minutes walk towards the south.
