This bright, daytime outdoor image captures a scene in Jiayuguan, China, likely near the Jiayuguan Fortress or East Lake. The primary subject is a young Caucasian female with long blonde hair, wearing dark sunglasses and a dark blue blazer over a grey top, extending her left arm to take a selfie while playfully sticking her tongue out. Behind her, on a grey paved path, two additional individuals are walking: a male wearing a cap, sunglasses, and a dark vest over a lighter shirt, and a female in a dark long-sleeved top and blue jeans. The paved path runs alongside a calm body of water, flanked by dry golden-brown grasses and reeds. In the distant left background, a traditional Chinese watchtower with a red roof is visible. The far right background reveals a section of a historical wall, consistent with the Jiayuguan Fortress, interspersed with small traditional pavilions and trees. The sky is clear and bright blue, featuring a prominent, intensely bright sun causing lens flare in the upper center of the frame. A partially visible warning sign with Chinese characters and a no-entry symbol stands on the grassy bank.
