A large open-sided warehouse-style hall with a corrugated roof and tiled floor, filled with ceremonial temple equipment. In the foreground a stainless steel table holds three small dark bronze or metal figures and four steel bowls of offerings. Along the left wall, wooden and metal palanquin-style frames and carved pieces rest on a bench. To the right, a gilded horse-shaped vahana, a painted colourful chariot-like structure and golden decorative pieces are displayed behind silver stanchions and chains. Two men in orange-red dhoti and shawl stand in the middle distance, one in a bright orange bag strap and the other wearing a gold-threaded garland, both in devotional dress. Several more people are visible further back.
