View of a river lined with a number of multi-story buildings along its banks. A building with a square base and crowned with a steeple-like structure, possibly a mosque, is visible near the center of the image. Also visible are a few people in a boat on the lower right area of the image, as well as Hari Parbat, also known as Koh-e-Maran, a fortified complex at the top of a hill in the background. This view is seen from a vantage point in the middle of the river, most likely from a bridge.
