A photograph of a steep, cobbled mountain path lined with makeshift roadside shops under tarpaulin and corrugated roofs, with green forested slopes rising behind. Several riders sit on mules and ponies moving up the lane; one rider in white clothes and a white head covering is near the centre, while others wear orange and red garments. A man in a dark jacket and an orange-clad man with a shoulder bag walk alongside the animals, and a few onlookers stand near the stalls. Plastic chairs sit outside a shop on the right, and a few hanging garments display bright patterns on the left.
