Nature
The base to any city before any planned developing, is its nature. Here are some shots of the natural habitats from my city of Santa María Island.
Being a coastal city, this area was first discovered by the Castilian Kingdom, prior to becoming Spain. No major settlement was established due to the heavy marshland and swamps that governed the area. It wasn't until the mid 1600's that a community of French pirates (buccaneers) decided to settle down and live as a hidden community.
The buccaneers made large profits off the pelts of the variety of animals this land has to offer, besides sacking Spanish galleóns and nearby towns.
Here lies the Château Bleu de Montbars. The now turned into the Naval Museum, it is separated by a bridge. This residence offers a large garden and scenic view to the city.
