A street scene in Sarouja Municipality, Syria, captured under a clear blue sky

A street scene in Sarouja Municipality, Syria, captured under a clear blue sky. A tall, ornate stone mosque minaret dominates the background, featuring a square base, an octagonal shaft with arched windows, a detailed wooden balcony (sharafa), and a conical spire. Adjacent to the minaret, a multi-story building with a weathered, light-colored facade and multiple rectangular windows lines the street. Below this building, a continuous awning extends over closed storefronts, each secured by metal roll-down shutters. A small, colorful banner hangs from the awning on the far right. On the street, a dark grey sedan is positioned in the mid-ground with its front passenger door open. A man in a white shirt and dark pants stands near this open door. Further down the street on the left, a yellow taxi is parked, followed by a red sedan. A second man in dark clothing is partially visible standing in the shadow near the storefronts behind the dark sedan. The top of a man's head and a portion of his shoulder are visible, out of focus, in the extreme right foreground. Several green-leafed trees are visible along the street, particularly on the left side and near the minaret. The street surface is paved.
