I thought at the outset that it looked more like a reservoir, and agreed with the Asian architecture. But with absolutely nothing in the picture that would suggest even the slightest hint of a keyword, I didn't spend any time on it. Again, it is like presenting a picture of a tree in a field with no other hints.

Perhaps a pic from the same spot with a slight change of angle will help?

That pic was taken at around 10:30 AM.

The air was very dirty, though, that day. (Early August)
