As a place to worship God Shiva, this temple is decorated with a statue of a phallus symbol of Siwa. There are also statues Brawijaya V and counsel and phallus-shaped stone and Yoni measuring two meters. Trapezoid-shaped main building are at the core top.

Until now Cetho Temple is still used by locals as a place of worship. They lay offerings at the statues and then climbed to the highest terrace for religious rituals. Fragrant flowers and incense offerings, coupled with frequent fog that blanketed the area down to give the impression of a mystical temple.
