Coastline——Littoral complet

The Côte d'Azur is truly worthy of its name, and this sea is also a precious natural heritage of Nice. As the most important color in the palette of urban beauty, Nice seems to have fallen into a Klein blue oil painting, and this is exactly how people can feel like they are swimming in a painting.
