The city then stretches across residential districts, rolling hills and bright bays, while mountains on the horizon appear through the morning haze. The first light of day warms the landscape and highlights the contrast between sea, city and hills. Altogether, the scene conveys the peaceful and radiant atmosphere of waking up in New Caledonia’s capital.
