This image depicts the New Clock Square (Sa'at al-Jadida) in the city of Homs, Syria, under a clear blue sky. At the center of the frame is a prominent multi-tiered, light-colored stone base topped with green shrubbery, forming a circular island within a paved roundabout. From this base rises a tall, dark metal pole featuring a four-faced clock approximately midway up its height, and an ornate, dark lamppost fixture at its apex. Numerous thin, multi-colored ribbons (including red, blue, green, white, purple, and yellow) radiate outwards from various points on the central structure and its base, stretching towards the perimeter of the square, some appearing to connect to surrounding buildings or poles. Surrounding the roundabout are multiple multi-story buildings of varying architectural styles and conditions. To the far left, a tall, partially constructed or heavily damaged concrete building with numerous open window frames is visible, appearing to be in a state of disrepair or unfinished construction. Behind the clock tower and extending to the right, several other multi-story buildings line the street; some exhibit lighter facades and balconies, while others appear older or more weathered. One building further right presents a facade with corrugated or striped paneling. The paved road of the roundabout is visible in the foreground and wraps around the central island. Several vehicles are present on the road, including cars (sedans and an SUV), a white bus, and at least two yellow taxis or minibuses. On the right side of the image, near the parked vehicles and sidewalks, multiple pedestrians are observed, one person in dark clothing and light pants is actively walking across the street. The scene is illuminated by bright daylight, casting subtle shadows.
