Looking out from inside a huge stone arch: outside the arch, there are modern apartment buildings with beige square veneers on both sides. Through the middle of the arch is a street leading down to the harbor. The harbor is full of sailboats, and there are pedestrians, cars and parked vehicles on the street. On the hill at the end of the street stands a large church-like building with a tall tower and dome. Houses are scattered on the mountainside, and there is mist in the sky.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyLooking at the city's waterfront from the sea: To the left of the center is a majestic Romanesque church with a huge dome and two square towers. The exterior wall is made of gray-white and dark-striped stone. On both sides of the church are dense urban buildings and red tile roofs. A stone breakwater runs across the front of the church. On the lower right, a white sailboat is sailing across the dark blue sea.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyOn the open sea, a small rocky island stands alone. On the island is a white stone fortress with multiple cylindrical towers and a wall. There is a small lighthouse with a red top on the left end of the island. It is surrounded by only dark blue sea and clean light blue sky. In the distance, there is a layer of mist floating at the junction of sea and sky.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyThe ancient stone walls and square towers on one side of the harbor are mottled and have a piled stone revetment at the bottom. Sunlight shines obliquely on the stone walls. Three rubber boats are carrying people in the harbor. The sea surface shines with dense silver reflections in the sunlight. In the distance are rows of moored sailboats and the city skyline.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyPanoramic view of the port during the day. There are densely packed sailboats and yachts parked on both sides of the dark blue harbor. Rows of masts stand upright in the sun. A small boat drags its wake across the water. In the background are light-colored stone city buildings and a church-like building with a bell tower. The sky is pure and blue.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyA white catamaran is sailing on the clear sea. The sails are half dark gray and half white. There are letter numbers and patterns on the sails. There are several people sitting on the deck. In the distance are the undulating light brown coastal hills, and the water is dark blue with fine ripples.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyThe white limestone cliffs on the sea surface are layered, with horizontal grooves and cracks formed by weathering on the surface. They extend from the left to the promontory on the right. There are scattered green shrubs growing on the ridges. Below the cliffs is the dark blue sea. In the lower right corner of the frame, there are white wakes left by two speedboats passing by, and the sky is filled with white clouds.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyOn the open sea under the blue sky, a white yacht with a cabin is sailing in the front right of the frame. Two people are standing on the stern of the boat, and there is a retracted mast on the deck. In the middle of the frame is an island with exposed rock walls and a flat top. There is a sailboat and several small boats in front of the island. The sea is dark blue with fine waves, and there are a few thin clouds in the sky.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyA section of steep coast: the upper half of the frame is a light gray rock wall, with dense dark green pine trees growing in the gaps in the rock wall. Below the cliff is a breakwater-like revetment made of large white stones; the sea surface is bright blue-green, with fine ripples on the water, and a white yacht is driving slowly along the stone shore.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journeyThe turquoise water clings to a tall gray-white limestone cliff, which is covered with cracks and hollows. On the water, two people each paddled side by side in a white kayak. One of the three people, wearing red, was waving his oar forward, and the oar stirred up white water spray.Jul 2024Cote d'AzurView full journey
