A shrine in an open pavilion with carved stone pillars and a gilded arched niche. Two large deity murtis stand together: the left one has an orange-red crown-like head covering, a trident-like staff, rudraksha beads and a pink lower garment; the right one wears a jewelled headdress, a red-and-gold garment and ornate necklaces. Between them stands a garland of white and red flowers draped over a seated figure in red and white. In the foreground are brass oil lamps, a brass kalasha and small bowls with offerings. A standing figure on the right wears a red shawl and holds hands together in a prayer gesture. Turquoise and orange drapes frame the shrine.
