"All the walls and roofs have beautiful murals in the tantric Buddhist style. But very few paintings were, in fact, photographed because one required a flashlight to see the paintings in this unlit gloom. Besides, more than photographing, one really wanted to soak in the ambience of the Lakhang and enjoy the beauty of the paintings on all the four walls and also on the roof above. The room was small enough for one to feel confined but the motifs on the walls were gorgeously extravagant."
