Photograph of a traditional wooden palace facade with a projecting carved wooden bay window and a small arched opening beneath a gabled wooden roof. Below, the sloping roof is covered with terracotta tiles, and a light grey gutter runs along the eave. The sky is pale and overcast. No people are visible. A small purple circular logo sits in the lower left corner of the photo. This appears to show the Padmanabhapuram Palace architecture in Kerala.
