A photograph of a stone stairway climbing steeply between a stone retaining wall and a hillside of green shrubs in a mountain village. Several men carry a palanquin-style litter on wooden poles up the steps; a person in a blue top and orange cloth sits or lies on the litter. Two men stand on a balcony above, one in a red cap and one in a red jacket, and a woman in white and orange stands at the top right near a white railing. The steps are worn concrete and the building walls are rough stone and white plaster.
