In this enchanting scene, we witness the king's extraordinary journey as he visits both the underworld and the skies, guided by none other than Indra, the God of Heaven. The intricate details showcased in this artwork are truly mesmerizing. The artist skillfully depicts King Nimi seated atop a majestic horse-drawn chariot, elegantly crafted with vibrant colors and delicate strokes. As they traverse through billowing clouds against an azure sky backdrop, one cannot help but be captivated by the ethereal beauty of this heavenly voyage. Surrounded by a large group of people who appear awestruck by their monarch's celestial adventure, we can sense their reverence for both royalty and divinity. The architecture and lush trees adorning the landscape further enhance our immersion into this mystical world.
