A large ancient banyan tree with sprawling aerial roots and dense green canopy dominates an outdoor temple grounds. At its base a raised platform holds a figure in a saffron-orange robe standing beside a deity or sacred structure, with a green cloth draped on a pole nearby. Several people in maroon-red robes gather around a red-draped altar piled with red flowers and offerings, while low stone walls and a paved path surround the tree. The scene suggests an outdoor ritual or puja at the sacred tree.
