Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint overlooking the ancient red-brick walls and central temple of Shalban Vihara toward the Mainamati Hills, or looking across the tranquil waters of Dharmasagar Dighi, showing overhanging tree branches in the foreground, the archaeological brick structures or lake waters in the middle-ground, and the rolling green hills fading into the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick canopies of rain trees around Dharmasagar Dighi, coconut palms, and the forested slopes of the Mainamati Hills.
