The image captures a nighttime outdoor gathering in Dali City, China, in an open area adjacent to a large, modern stadium or convention center, visible as a prominent curved structure in the right background. A large bonfire, composed of multiple burning logs and planks, occupies the central foreground, emitting bright orange and yellow flames that illuminate the immediate vicinity. To the left of the bonfire, unburnt wooden planks are stacked. Numerous individuals, primarily adults and some children, are gathered in a crowd around the fire, observing the flames. Most individuals are standing, looking towards the bonfire or slightly off-center. A young child, dressed in light-colored clothing, stands near an adult female on the left side of the crowd. The immediate foreground shows the back of a person's head and shoulder with light-colored hair, out of focus. The background reveals additional multi-story buildings, a tall streetlight pole, and some vegetation, all dimly lit under a dark night sky, with visible smoke or atmospheric haze. The ground is unpaved, appearing as dirt or gravel.
