This nocturnal image captures a brightly illuminated outdoor display sign in Dali City, China, positioned on a grassy embankment with trees and dimly lit structures in the dark background. The sign, predominantly dark blue with a wavy top edge, features a circular gold-bordered emblem on its upper left, containing the white Chinese character "法" (fǎ, meaning "law"). To the right of this emblem, three white silhouettes resembling the iconic Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple are affixed. A rectangular, internally lit panel dominates the right side of the sign. Its primary text in red reads: "人民调解筑防线 化解纠纷促稳定" (People's mediation builds a defense line, resolves disputes, promotes stability). Below this, a blue banner states: "依法调解、构建和谐" (Mediate according to law, build harmony), accompanied by a gavel icon. Further text details mediation principles, and a cityscape illustration with buildings, wind turbines, and a QR code occupies the bottom portion of the panel. At the base of the sign, two cartoon character cutouts are present. The left character is a girl in red and white traditional attire, while the right character is a boy in blue and white traditional attire with a white head covering, both depicted with arms outstretched. The scene is static, devoid of human activity, and illuminated solely by the sign's internal lighting.
