## Prompt

```text
Goal: Create a vintage travel poster for {city_name}, {country_label}, evoking an early 20th-century railway tourism advertisement.

Canvas: Vertical poster, 2:3 aspect ratio, warm aged paper background in ochre, sepia, and sunset orange. Add a thin double-line rectangular border close to the edge, printed in muted reddish brown.

Layout: Huge uppercase title across the top reading {city_name} in a tall condensed slab-serif style, dark teal ink, occupying about the top quarter of the poster. Beneath it on the left, place the smaller wide-spaced uppercase country label {country_label} in burnt red. Below that, include a small line-art temple gopuram icon centered over the tagline {tagline} in italic serif script. Under the tagline add a tiny decorative divider with two short horizontal lines and a centered dot, then the coordinates {coordinates} in small monospaced lettering.

Main scene: The lower two-thirds show a golden sunset beach in Chennai with the sea on the left, glowing sun low near the horizon, gentle waves, wet reflective sand, and a monumental South Indian temple gopuram dominating the right side. Render the temple as an extremely detailed carved Dravidian tower in dark amber and bronze shadows, rising from the shoreline wall; include two additional smaller temple towers receding into the distance near the center-left background. Add palm silhouettes and a low coastal promenade wall.

Foreground details: Include exactly 3 prominent fishing boats: one large wooden boat stretching across the bottom foreground, one narrow boat pulled onto the beach near the center-right, and one more boat farther right near the waterline. Include exactly 6 visible human figures: two silhouetted fishermen in the left and center foreground beside the large boat, one standing fisherman on the right foreground, and three smaller figures near the boats in the midground. Add exactly 5 small birds in the sky over the sea.

Visual style: Lithographic vintage travel-poster illustration, soft grain, subtle paper texture, limited ink palette of teal, burnt sienna, ochre, and deep brown. Strong atmospheric perspective, dramatic warm sunset lighting, crisp poster typography, no modern objects, no photorealistic camera look, no watermark.
