Samadhi Buddha, in meditation, with women praying. Previously, there were 4 statues total, with gems for eyes, but since have been looted or corroded.
Massive twin baths for 8th century monks to have their ritual ablutions. Urns signify plenty, and ancient water engineers constructed the water to run from a lion's head, which also purified it. In addition, the water could pass through the two baths between small holes in the walls. Turtles now live in the fetid, pea-green water, and vendors sell handicrafts and spices.
