Original artwork, not a still
It is delightful at all times, but I think especially so after dark. The monument stands up distinct but not quite earthly in the night, and at this season the air is sweet with the jasmine and honeysuckle.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker particularly enjoys the place after dark, when the monument appears distinct yet almost unearthly. The scent of jasmine and honeysuckle adds another kind of pleasure. The passage combines a striking night-time outline with the sweetness of the surrounding air.
