The image depicts a historical or cultural site within Jiayuguan, China, under a clear blue sky. Centered in the mid-ground is an octagonal Chinese pavilion with a tiered, upturned roof, reddish-brown support pillars, and intricate decorative elements, standing on a raised earthen platform. A large stone stele is visible inside the pavilion. To the right and behind the pavilion, a tall, light-colored wall constructed from horizontally coursed blocks extends across the frame. To the left, a smaller, similarly styled traditional Chinese building is partially visible, situated on a higher elevation and partially obscured by an evergreen tree. Seven individuals are present. In the mid-foreground, an adult male in a black jacket, grey pants, and a patterned shoulder bag stands with his back to the viewer, facing the pavilion. He is positioned in front of three rectangular informational display boards containing images and text, which rest on a low stone wall. To his left, another adult male in a dark blue jacket and pants ascends a set of stone steps. Partially visible in the lower right corner, an adult male in a white long-sleeved shirt and brown pants faces away from the camera. Near the pavilion, three other individuals are visible: one in red clothing ascends a dirt path towards the left building, another in a white top and red skirt stands near the pavilion's base, and a third in dark attire is inside the pavilion. The immediate foreground consists of a grey paved surface with several rectangular drainage slots. Shadows are cast, indicating direct sunlight.
