Update Ten: Welcome to Purto Masculo

Hello everyone, today we're going to go back to Insulo! The city we'll visit is one that has hardly got any mention before now, Purto Maculo in the far-eastern Basque-speaking region of Insulo.

Here is a map of Insulo, Purto Masculo is on the far right in white:

First we'll see some anchovy fishing boats out at sea near the city. The waters here are plentiful in seafood that plays a big role in the diet of the city.

Now we go to the border between the city and the beach. The beach here, called Hondartza Harrigarri, goes very far inland and is one of the most famous beaches in Insulo.

A picture of the Lehoikumek neighborhood showing a canal that brings water to the city from a nearby river. The canal was once an important shipping route to inland towns, but with the advent of roads and railroads became largely recreational.

A wide boulevard near the main plaza of the city featuring numerous sculptures from a variety of time periods. Purto Masculo has long been a favorite location of artists of all kinds. Also shown are two cannons that once guarded Purto Masculo's strategic position between the Insulonian and Posillipan Kingdoms.

Finally we go even further back in the history of Insulo, here you see an ancient Insulonian temple. The temple itself is in ruin, but an urn inside that will soon be extracted to the national history museum is remarkably intact.

Hope you enjoyed this city, I put a lot of hard work into this and you can expect to visit it again.

Yeah, it looks pretty awesome. I'm glad I stopped by :D ! It also looks as though the purveyors of some fine yellow and red hatchbacks is making a killing in your country!

That central boulevard is just brilliant. I love the different objects - sculptures, cannon etc.

I spy someone who has spent quite some time in the L.E....which makes this city just perfect! 5/5
However, I do agree with Skimbo (just a minor detail).
