The image presents a nighttime scene along the Pearl River in the Liwan District of Guangzhou, China. In the immediate foreground, a metal gangway, illuminated with a stark blue light, descends towards the river. This gangway connects to a floating pier system, characterized by prominent yellow structural supports. Moored at this pier is a white and blue passenger ferry displaying "GUANGDONG FERRY" in English and corresponding Chinese characters, illuminated by internal and external lights, which reflect off the dark, rippled river water. To the right, a darker section of the pier features a silver metal railing, an overhead light fixture, and a security camera mounted on a vertical pole. Across the river, the cityscape is dominated by numerous multi-story buildings, brightly lit with golden, white, and blue architectural lights, including a tall skyscraper on the left. A multi-span bridge, also illuminated, crosses the river in the mid-distance. The sky above is dark with a faint crescent moon visible. No individuals are present within the frame.
