The image depicts a crowded, steeply inclined stone-paved alleyway at night in Jiufen Old Street, Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan. Numerous traditional multi-story buildings line the alley, heavily illuminated by red cylindrical and spherical lanterns strung overhead and affixed to facades, alongside decorative string lights on greenery. On the right, a prominent building, identified by a large red banner displaying "阿妹茶樓" (A-Mei Teahouse) in black Chinese characters, features multiple floors with open yellow-framed windows and balconies adorned with luminous green foliage. Inside, several individuals are visible through the windows, seated at tables. Below this building, a storefront with a display of teaware is visible. The alley itself is bustling with people of various ages. In the mid-ground, a person wearing a yellow overgarment carries a child on their shoulders, facing away from the camera. Another individual stands nearby, looking at a smartphone. Further down the alley, numerous figures are walking, standing, and interacting. In the lower left foreground, partially obscured, a man in a grey baseball cap and a brown top leans on a metal railing. The dark night sky dominates the upper portion of the image, revealing distant lights on the horizon, indicative of a view overlooking a bay or sea.
