'''Antarala''' ([[Sanskrit]]: अन्तराल, lit. ''intermediate space'') is a small antechamber or foyer between the [[garbhagriha]] (shrine) and the [[mandapa]], more typical of north Indian temples.<br />
<br />
Antarala are commonly seen in Chalukyan Style temples in which the 'Vimana' and the 'Mandapa' are connected through the 'Antarala'.<ref>{{cite web<br />
