The video is of a big fountain in a temple.In the previous posts I have attached two snaps also.As one can appreciate there are 4 sculptures of lord ‘Shiva’ at 4 corners of the fountain.From their long hairs arises a tall flow of water and all 4 flows meet v high above the ground in the centre.There is a belief in Indian mythology that the great river Ganges has arised from the hairs of lord ‘Shiva’.Isn’t it amazing?unfortunately our time of visiting didnt coincide with fountain opening time.They usually start it at 6 in the evening.Anyway better luck next time.
