The image depicts the exterior wall and a minaret of a large stone structure at night, likely the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus, Syria. The scene is illuminated by artificial light sources. The dominant feature is a massive, light-colored stone wall, constructed from large, irregularly shaped blocks, extending from the lower left to the upper right of the frame. The wall exhibits signs of age and wear, with some recessed areas and textured surfaces. Along its top edge, a crenellated parapet is visible. Approximately midway along the visible section of the wall, an etched or carved rectangular plaque with text is embedded. Two dark-colored streetlights with curved posts and modern, rectangular LED fixtures project from the foreground towards the wall, illuminating its surface. Behind and to the right of the wall, an octagonal minaret rises prominently against a dark, clear night sky. The minaret is strongly illuminated by warm, yellow-orange light, highlighting its ornate architectural details, including geometric patterns, arched windows, and decorative bands. Its top section features a smaller, circular structure crowned with a finial. The ground in the foreground consists of cobblestones or pavers, partially illuminated. Near the base of the wall, below the left streetlight, a small, dark, rectangular metal frame stands on the ground. Further to the right, two dark, cylindrical objects (possibly bollards or small bins) are present. No individuals are visible. An embedded timestamp in the lower-left corner indicates "10/9/2025 2:09".
