The image depicts a crowded scene at the Yonghe Temple (Lama Temple) in Beijing, China. The focal point is a large, multi-tiered traditional Chinese temple building with red columns, ornate eaves featuring intricate patterns in green, blue, and yellow, and dark tiled roofs with upturned corners. A prominent plaque with Chinese characters "雍和宮" (Yonghegong) is visible above the central entrance, and another plaque with "戒律成德" (Jielü Chengde) is present on the upper level. In the foreground and on the stone steps leading to the temple entrance, a dense crowd of approximately fifty to seventy individuals, predominantly East Asian adults, is gathered. Many individuals are holding bundles of lit incense sticks, some in a bowing or reverent posture. Multiple large, dark-colored square incense burners are positioned on the paved ground, actively emitting thick plumes of grey-white smoke that rise into the air, partially obscuring individuals and the lower portion of the temple facade. People are seen ascending and descending the steps, and others are entering or exiting the temple through the main doors. The sky above is partially overcast with scattered white clouds.
