A group of about ten people walks up a wet, pale concrete mountain road lined with dense green hillside vegetation and a low stone retaining wall on the right.

Roughly a dozen people trudge uphill in a loose cluster, several in rain gear: one man in a dark blue raincoat with an orange cloth over his shoulder, another in a grey sweater, a man in a white jacket, and a woman in a red top. Some carry blue plastic sheeting or bundles. The road surface is glossy with puddles, and the scene reads as a pilgrimage trek in the hills.
