A decorated Shivalinga is the central subject of this temple photo, set on a green silk cloth draped over a platform. The black stone linga is dressed with a heavy gold-toned embellished silver-and-gold ornament pattern across its base, a gold ornamental crest with a tilak on top, and long garlands of white jasmine and red flowers hanging down both sides. Brass vessels stand in front, and a brass ornamental object sits at lower right. Purple and maroon fabric hangs in the background with gold border trim. No people are visible.
