The photograph showcases the stunning sacrificial hall located within the Mausoleum of Emperor Yung Lo in Nanking. The intricate architecture and grandeur of this ancient structure are beautifully captured, highlighting its historical significance. However, there is an underlying sense of danger as suggested by the title - it seems that this cherished monument is now under threat.
