A group of approximately fifteen individuals, primarily adults, are observed from behind and the side, standing on a light-colored paved surface, facing and looking up at an ornate, multi-story traditional Chinese building. The scene takes place within the Jiayuguan Fort complex in Jiayuguan, Gansu Province, China, specifically depicting a structure bearing the prominent black horizontal signboard with gold Chinese characters "正乾坤" (Zheng Qian Kun) located above a main entrance. The building exhibits traditional Chinese architecture with a multi-tiered, tiled roof featuring intricate, colorful eaves and painted wooden supports in shades of red, blue, green, and gold. Below the roof structure, the upper facade displays numerous rectangular and square panels with painted depictions of figures in traditional attire, landscapes, and auspicious animals like elephants, predominantly on a golden or light background. The lower section of the building consists of a light-colored brick wall. One individual in the center of the group holds a green flag attached to a pole. Clothing among the onlookers includes casual jackets in colors such as purple, black, light blue, and bright pink, and several individuals wear hats. The environment is brightly lit by natural sunlight, with a clear sky visible above the building.
