Photo of a golden ceremonial chariot procession. A man in the foreground sits on an ornate gold-carved seat, wearing a tall gold crown-like headdress, a reddish-brown robe, layered gold and red garlands, a rudraksha-style mala, and holding a silver trident-shaped staff. Beside him, a second man with a shaved head and red-brown robes sits slightly behind. The chariot is decorated with gold finials, bells, pink, teal and purple tassels, and colourful flower garlands. The man in the crown has a distinctive presentation with ornate gold headwear and garlands; appearance alone is not enough to name him, so he is described by role as a figure seated on the procession chariot.
