CHANDRAGUPTA BASADI - CHANDRAGIRI
Chandragupta Basadi is dedicated to Emperor Chandragupta Maurya. This was originally built by Emperor Ashoka, the grandson of Chandragupta Maurya. It is one of the prime places to visit on Chandragiri Hill in Shravanabelagola.
The Chandragupta basadi is a triple celled structure where three cells are arranged in a row fronted by a verandah. The cells on either side have small towers over them resembling the chole type. To this was subsequently added an ornamental doorway in front with perforated stone screens at the sides. The screens are pierced with square openings are carved with minute sculptures as the scenes from the lives of the Srutakevali Bhadrabahu and the Maurya Emperor Chandragupta. A sculpture of Parshwanatha is housed in the central shrine while the two side shrines house Padmavati and Kushmandini Yakshis. The outer walls are decorated with different figures. This monument is built around 12th century.
PARSHWANATHA BASADI - CHANDRAGIRI
The basadi contains a garbagriha, a sukhanasi, a navaranga and a porch. This is a beautiful structure with decorated outer walls. The doorways are lofty and the navaranga as well as the porch have verandhas at their sides. The pillars in the navaranga are of round Ganga type with bell, vase and wheel mouldings. The image of Parshwanatha is the tallest on the hill which is 18 feet in height.
The manastambha (pillar) in front of the Parshwanatha basadi has a pavilion on the top containing standing Jain figures facing four directions. This pillar is sculptured on all the four sides of the base and contains the figure of Padmavathi on the south, Yaksha on the east, seated Kushmandini on the north and a galloping horseman on the west. It was built by a Jain merchant Puttaiya between 1672 & 1704 AD.
KATTALE BASADI - CHANDRAGIRI
Kattale Basadi is situated to the left of Parswanatha Basadi on Chandragiri. It is the biggest of all the Basadis on Chandragiri hill.
This basadi is dedicated to Adinath, the first tirthankara. An image of the Goddess Padmavathi is also found in the verandah. It was constructed by Ganga Raja, the general of Vishnuvardhana. This structure was recently renovated by the Government of Karnataka.
The basadi has garbhagriha, pradakshinapatha, an open sukanasi, a navaranga of 16 pillars, a large rangpmandapa. The garbhagriha houses the seated image of Lord Adinatha. As per the inscriptions on the pedestal of this image, the temple was funded by Pochavve, the mother of Gangaraja.
CHANDRAPRABHA BASADI - CHANDRAGIRI
It consists of an open Garbagriha, a sukhanasi, a navaranga and a porch and enshrines a seated figure of Chandraprabha, the 8th tirthankara. In the sukhanasi are placed the images of Shyama and Jwalamalini, the yaksha and yakshi. The pedestal of Jwalamalini image shows a lion with two riders seated one behind the other.
The basadi is a brick structure raised over a stone base. It is said to have been constructed by the Ganga king Sivamara II.
CHAMUNDARAYA BASADI - CHANDRAGIRI
is a wonderful structure dedicated to Lord Neminatha built in Jaina architecture of Dravidian style. It was built by Chamundaraya, the minister of Ganga king Marasimha II in 982 AD. The construction of this basadi was completed in 995 AD. It is one of the prime places to visit in Shravanabelagola, the holy site of Jain pilgrimage.
Chamundaraya Basadi is the most attractive and largest structure on Chandragiri hill. This structure resembles the Dravidian two-tier temple architecture introduced by Badami Chalukyas.
There is another small structure on the first level of Chamundaraya Basadi which can be accessed by a set of narrow steps on the left side as visitors enter the shrine.

Sir, I was in shravanabelagola for 4 years.. I know you cannot hire a professional guide but you could have hired a priest of any temple to explain some importance and history of this great hill... You just ignored everything... Also ASI and Jain math has done very little to promote..

[@suhasbabuss4219]

It was named chandragiri in the honour of Chandragupta Maurya who layed down his life here according to Jain rituals.
