On either side, a festooned gate features a short wood column suspended from its eave, its end sculpted in the shape of a lotus bud. Adorned with exquisitely carved canopies, intricate panels, and vibrant decorative paintings, the gate emanates opulence and grandeur.

In traditional residential architecture, the festooned gate frequently serves as the entrance to the living quarters, functioning as a distinctive decorative element that both connects and separates the interior and exterior spaces of the residence.
