Interior of a temple hall with orange-painted walls and a white tiled floor. A line of about twenty women and some men in white clothes stand in a queue, several wearing orange or saffron shawls and one in yellow, some holding small items. Framed portraits hang on the orange wall and a framed photo sits on a shelf; a portrait of a man in orange robes with a garland is visible, but no one can be confidently matched to a person. Glass display cabinets with items sit in the foreground, a white-draped table with brass vessels is at right, and a dark suitcase rests near the cabinets. A mirror reflects the queue and a shaded outdoor area with people.
