A large crowd of mostly men and some women stands behind yellow metal barricades on a street, many raising their hands and joining palms in greeting or devotion. Red flags stand in the foreground on the left. Behind them a pink tented structure with orange and red drapery bears a signboard reading Shri Dham Darbar Siddhanath Mahadev Shri Avalanath Mahadev Mandir, with a pink-robed figure depicted on the side banner. Some people wear white shirts, pink and blue clothing, and a woman in a green sari holds her hands together. A flag-topped pole and a banner reading Shrimad Bhagavad Gita hang nearby, and an ornate decorated canopy edges the right foreground.
