## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a vertical travel poster illustration of {city} as an intricate handmade paper-cut diorama, showing historic architecture, the Danube River, and timeless streets in a warm nostalgic style.

Canvas: Portrait 3:4 composition, like a detailed editorial travel cover. Use a soft textured blue paper sky background with subtle grain, warm afternoon light, and layered cut-paper shadows that make every building, tree, bridge, cloud, and rooftop feel physically assembled from paper.

Layout: Use an elevated viewpoint from the Buda hills looking down over the city. The foreground is a steep cobblestone street with tram tracks, a yellow vintage tram, pedestrians, bicycles, old stone walls, potted café plants, and red-tiled rooftops. The middle ground contains Buda Castle and Fisherman's Bastion on the left, the Danube River running diagonally through the center, Chain Bridge crossing the river to the right, and the Hungarian Parliament building on the far right riverbank. The background shows a distant city skyline, low blue hills, and atmospheric haze.

Text content: Add a large handwritten white chalk-script title in the upper right reading {title_text}. Include exactly 5 small white handwritten landmark annotations with delicate arrows and doodles: “Fisherman's Bastion” pointing to the towers on the upper left, “Matthias Church” pointing to the ornate church roof and spire, “Buda Castle” pointing to the domed palace, “Parliament” pointing to the riverside parliament building with a small heart doodle, and “Chain Bridge” pointing to the suspension bridge with a tiny bridge sketch. Add a few tiny decorative stars, a dotted travel path, and a small location-pin doodle near the title.

Visible elements to include: exactly 2 cream paper clouds in the sky, one larger cloud at upper left and one smaller cloud below it near the center; exactly 2 simple bird silhouettes over the river/sky; exactly 1 yellow tram marked with the number “2”; exactly 1 white river boat on the lower right of the Danube; exactly 1 café terrace in the lower right with round tables, chairs, umbrellas, and flower pots; exactly 2 bicycles near the lower center; several layered trees made from muted green paper cutouts.

Visual style: Highly detailed paper-cut collage, miniature diorama depth, realistic architectural silhouettes but softened by handmade craft texture. Color palette of dusty teal sky, cream paper highlights, terracotta roofs, muted sage trees, beige stone buildings, turquoise-blue river, and golden-yellow tram. Use soft shadows under every cut-paper layer, slight edge roughness, tactile paper fibers, and no photorealistic people.

Constraints: Keep the scene charming and dense but readable, preserve the historic Budapest landmarks accurately enough to recognize them, avoid modern billboards or cars, avoid extra landmark labels beyond the 5 listed annotations, and do not add watermarks or logos.
