Description

Photograph of architecture taken at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. In the left corner of the photo's foreground is a wooden sign, facing away from the camera, and a small bush. In the photo's right side is an area shaded by a flat rectangular roof, with the one corner visible in the photo held up by two columns on the same rectangular base. A potted plant hangs between the two columns while a lightbulb sticks out from the underside of the roof near the columns. To the left of the columns' base is an object resembling a large bowl turned on its side with a smaller bowl affixed in its center. To the left of this circular object is a small potted tree, behind which is a paved walkway and wooden fencing against a wall. At the top of the wall is a line of small bushes in front of a three-tier water fountain. Behind the fountain is a tall building that faces the right side of the photo and has a columned porch, flat roof, and large lanterns that hang from the porch's ceiling. Opposite the building, in the right side of the background, is a crowd of pedestrians walking under a row of tall trees.
