Description

A wide panoramic view of the palace ruins on a headland above the sea. Low stone walls and rectangular foundations spread across the rocky ground, with a tree and bushes in the middle distance and a wire fence on wooden posts in the foreground. The flat sea fills the left and back of the view under a pale, hazy sky.
