A dim stone temple corridor lined with carved grey pillars and a low ceiling strung with rows of small multicoloured triangular pennant flags in pink, purple, orange, blue and yellow. On the left, carved stone figures and a wooden stand sit beside the pillars. On the right, tall dark-red iron grilles enclose shrine doorways with golden spearpoint finials. A man in a blue-and-white checked shirt and dark trousers stands near the centre, and a uniformed officer in khaki stands beside him; a large stainless steel pot or urn stands on the floor. A small bright light fixture and a ceiling spotlight illuminate the passage.
