I like the Keralite style of temples. They are very unique.

Khajuraho, to me, is the pinnacle of the Medieval Nagara style of architecture. The proportions are just perfect.

Dasavatara Vishnu Temple, Deogarh, MP

One of the earliest surviving Vishnu temples, dating from the 6th century AD (Gupta Period). It tremendously influenced the later developments in temple architecture.

Main Temple (Vimana is heavily damaged)

(Sleeping Vishnu)

(Pandavas with Draupadi -nice hairstyles, probably dreadlocks?)

(Ganesh - a minor deity here, but his popularity increases in later times)
