A sandy outdoor site at a palm-lined grounds with a row of flag poles flying multicoloured national-style flags on the left. Rows of stacked red-brown bricks are laid out across the sand in an orderly grid. Behind them stands a striped red-and-white canopy tent with a multicoloured fringed top, beside a large black cauldron on a stand. On the left, white tarpaulins cover a low platform where a worker crouches. Two or three people in white clothing stand at the right edge near the palms, and a building is visible in the distance.

Palm trees and a distant hill are visible beyond the wall, and a few plastic bags lie on the ground. No people are present.
