The main hall was built of wood. The worshipers came here one after another. This temple has a long history and popular for the locals.

The little girl in this photo also came here with her parents. After finishing praying, she started to descend down the wooden staircase in the main hall. I saw two people praying on the other side of her. Hariti which is enshrined here is a symbol for the protection of children. Yet I didn't think the little girl knew that.
