If the user enters Paris, create a Paris-specific scene; if they enter Tokyo, create a Tokyo-specific scene; etc. Automatically select the most recognizable landmark, authentic surrounding environment, appropriate architecture, geography, vegetation, transportation, typography, and secondary details. Never copy the visual contents of another city. Preserve the fixed paper-cut postcard aesthetic, composition quality, typography hierarchy, pastel palette, tactile texture, and premium editorial finish across every city." }
