A photograph inside a gold-painted temple shrine. On the left stands a smiling person in an orange-and-saffron turban and orange-striped saffron wrap, with a long multicolour flower garland and a rudraksha-style orange-beaded necklace; they are not clearly identifiable, so this is a person in ritual dress. Three shrine niches hold dark stone deity murtis: the central one is a Shiva lingam with three horizontal tripundra lines, draped in a pink-and-teal silk cloth with marigold and mixed flower garlands, flanked by two dark figures in red and green saris with orange marigold garlands. A white ceiling fan and electrical sockets are visible on the wall.
