## Prompt

```text
Please draw a brightly colored, vertical (9:16) hand-drawn style "{city_name} Travel Journal Illustration." The style should look as if it were created with crayons by a curious child. Use a soft and warm light-colored background (such as light yellow), paired with bright tones like red, blue, and green, to create a cozy, child-like, and travel-inspired atmosphere.

I. Main Image: Journal-style Travel Route

Draw a "winding travel route" in the center of the illustration, connecting multiple locations with arrows and dashed lines. Recommended attractions will be automatically generated based on a {number_of_days}-day itinerary:

Example format (automatically replaced with {city_name} related content):

- "Stop 1: {Attraction 1 recommendation + short fun description}"
- "Stop 2: {Attraction 2 recommendation + short fun description}"
- "Stop 3: {Attraction 3 recommendation + short fun description}"
- ...
- "Final Stop: {Local signature food/souvenir + warm closing statement}"

> The number of travel stops is automatically generated based on the number of days. If no days are input, a 1-day/highlights route will be generated by default.

II. Fun Surrounding Elements (Automatically replaced based on the city)

Add plenty of child-like elements around the route, such as:

- Cute travel characters: "A child holding local snacks," "An adventurous kid wearing a backpack," etc.
- Child-like Q-version hand-drawings of local landmarks: such as "{landmark 1}," "{landmark 2}," "{landmark 3}."
- Fun signboards: "Watch out for getting lost!", "Mind the crowds!", "Good food ahead!" (Adjusted according to city context).
- Sticker-style slogans: "{city_name} Travel Memories Unlocked!", "{city_name} Food Adventure!", "Where to next?"
- Cute small icons of local delicacies: such as "{food 1}," "{food 2}," "{food 3}."
- Exclamations (maintaining a child-like tone): "{city_name} is so much fun!", "I want to go again!"

III. Overall Style Requirements

- Hand-drawn crayon style / children's travel log style
- Bright colors, full but warm composition
- Emphasis on the joy and exploration of travel
- All text uses cute handwritten fonts
- Make the entire image look like a travel journal page full of child-like wonder.
```
