A photograph of an outdoor landscape at AdiKailasa in Bidadi: a murky greenish pond on the left with lily pads and a small grassy island ringed by a low stone wall. To the right, a red stone amphitheatre of tiered terraces holds many potted plants and small saplings, with a tall palm and a leafy tree beside it. White metal railings line the steps in the foreground, and palms and trees stand in the distance under a pale sky. No people are visible.
