[A display at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, 3]

Photograph of a display at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. A statue of a bearded man wearing a turban, long-sleeved top, and pants sits on a wavy platform with strings of beads hanging from its sides. The platform has no clearly visible supports holding it up, and thus appears to float in the air. The man also holds an object in his right hand that resembles a sphere with a stick at its top, resting on a cylindrical base. Below the man and his platform is a flat wall cut and painted to resemble a simplified version of the architectural style seen in the Taj Mahal in India, including teardrop shaped tops to the structure's two towers and central wall. To the left of this structure are towers painted on top of each other in a more medieval European style. On the opposite side of the photo is the left half of a wall painted with a triangular pediment-style roof with an open-air window below it, painted with curtains that look as if they've been tied back. Inside the window is a figure wearing a diamond-patterned top and a hat resembling a jester. Behind all of the painted walls …
