The tower is an excellent specimen of Hindu sculpture. The entire building from basement to summit, is covered with the most elaborate ornamentation, either in figures belonging to the Hindu pantheon, each carefully named, or in architectural scrolls and foliage, all in perfect subordination to the general design. The exquisite sculptures display Hindu deities and representation of episodes showing great epics - Ramayana and Mahabharata. Its walls, both exterior and interior, are adorned with mythological characters and scenes. From the top the view of the vast land around—field of many historical events—is enchanting. Several historical inscriptions are also found on the walls of the tower.
Though the kings of Chittorgarh were staunch Hindu but they promoted religious pluralism. It can be understood by the fact that the ninth storey portrays an sculpture of Padmavati, a Jain goddess. Another interesting aspect of Vijay Stambh is that it displays images of Jaita, the architect of this tower with his 3 sons – Poma, Puja and Napa. Various historians like Lt. Col. Tod & Fergusson have considered Vijay Stambh much superior than Qutub Minar in Delhi and the pillar of Trajan at Rome. A trip to Chittorgarh without visiting Vijay Stambh remains incomplete.
