A stone Himalayan temple with a tiered shikhara spire and saffron flags stands at the top of a stone staircase, backed by snow-covered peaks under a blue sky. Pilgrims climb the steps and gather at the entrance, and a man in a brown jacket and cap walks down the paved path sweeping with a broom. Roadside stalls line both sides, with orange and saffron cloth hanging on the right, and a blue banner reads SIMPLE CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS & MANAGEMENT with a sign below reading OXYGEN LEVEL CHECK 1/MINUTE and FREE OXYGEN/MEDICINE. Power lines and street lamps cross the scene.
