Main Hall Interiors Projection Mapping in the Main Hall
Gallery 4 : The Descent of Ganga
The story of the “Descent of Ganga” is projected across the intricately carved walls, floor and the painted ceiling (a total
of 5 surfaces) of the main hall using high quality projection mapping that creates an immersive experience. This gallery is
the main attraction of the museum. As per legends, Shiva saved the earth from the torrential force of Ganga by allowing
her to pass through his thick locks. In subsequent years, the river played a major role in shaping Kashi. Its perennial flow
engulfs the exquisite geography, culture, traditions and historicity of the sacred city. Two rows of visitor’s seating has
been created at one end of the hall. The projection equipment has been sensitively installed from the ceiling wooden
beams.
