A large black Shiva lingam stands on a raised platform in the middle of a reflecting pool, draped with banners of marigold and strings of colourful flowers in yellow, orange, red and green, with a white band wrapped around it. A steel staircase with red and yellow garlands leads up from the pool to the platform, and a line of saffron-robed monks and white-clad attendants climbs or waits along it. Red-tiered stone seating rises on both sides, with rows of people in orange and saffron clothing seated along the steps, and a red-brick multi-storey building stands behind. The scene reflects clearly in the still water.
