Elevated view of a dense crowd of pilgrims walking along a wide dirt lane through a temporary camp city. Many people wear saris and kurtas in red, pink, orange, yellow and white, and several carry bundles, bags and umbrellas on their heads. Makeshift tents with white, yellow, pink and red canopies line both sides, along with stalls, tarpaulin shops, saffron-coloured flags and signboards. Small shrines and a red-and-white gateway stand at the left edge. No single figure can be picked out as a person (the crowd is too distant), so no appearance-based candidate is identified. The image shows a large crowd of pilgrims and vendors in a crowded camp city.
