Two light pink front doors, each adorned with a large festive wreath. Both doors are part of a white brick building with a blue circular plaque above. A black wrought iron fence, a potted plant, and a rectangular planter with greenery enhance the entrance. A group of people dressed in colorful, festive clothing pose together in front of an arch made of multicolored metallic leaves. They are smiling and showing celebratory gestures, with some wearing Santa hats. The scene is lively, under a lit archway. A group of people stands behind and within a large illuminated sign that reads "KING'S ROAD" in bright white lights. The ground is wet, reflecting the light, and it appears to be nighttime. The festive atmosphere suggests a holiday or celebratory event. A group of people wearing festive hats and colorful clothing pose for a photo under a tunnel decorated with golden lights and ornaments. Some are standing and others are kneeling, smiling and waving at the camera, creating a joyful holiday atmosphere. A festive wreath decorated with colorful Christmas ornaments, each with googly eyes, creating a playful, almost cartoonish effect. The ornaments vary in color from green, blue, and purple to red, orange, and gold, all attached to a green evergreen base.
