A large, spreading banyan tree with dense dark-green leaves and multiple thick branches stands in front of a tall stone wall of rectangular grey-beige blocks topped by a pinkish plastered parapet with carved moulding. Aerial roots hang and wrap around the trunk base, and palm fronds and flowering shrubs grow in the foreground. No people are visible. The scene shows the tree and wall area beside the temple, with no ritual, deity or person in view.
