Description

A tall ruined masonry structure rises from a dusty open ground, with several arched openings in its tiers and a broken, uneven top. Lower walls and a heap of loose stone blocks lie in the foreground, and a vaulted arcade continues to the right. A number label sits at the lower left, and no people are shown.
