A covered temple hall decorated for a festival, with banana plants lining a central walkway toward a brightly lit shrine at the far end. Tall cylindrical hanging decorations in red, blue, yellow and orange stripes with floral motifs hang from the metal roof, along with yellow paper or leaf streamers. The shrine area glows with warm light and holds a deity murti or altar display. A small figure in white clothing stands near the right edge, and a few chairs and a yellow-draped table sit along the walls. Printed panels line the side walls.
