Very slim info. I would love to see a reconstruction of what it looked like in its prime. I think it had a gold dome - can't recall all the details, but it must have stood out like a shining star, way out to sea in the first light of dawn.

She didn't mention that the main temple is filled in with rocks and dirt to stop it collapsing (by the British) - she stands in front of it and photographs a pile of dirt, but you see picture of completely different areas. That filled in doorway is still a major place of worship. They are reconstructing and cleaning, but at a very slow pace. And she didn't mention the MahaMaya temple behind.
