Many small oil lamps are arranged in lines and geometric patterns across the steps and floor, glowing warmly. One robed figure in white stands at the right side of the platform beside the lamps, while a small vehicle is visible at the right edge. Framed posters with photographs and printed text flank the temple sign on the wall.
