# Monuments in a surreal canyon

> A 3D landscape showcase pairs vast mountain valleys with stone gateways, suspended architecture, waterfalls and orbital sculptures. Warm outdoor vistas contrast with a dark chamber containing a luminous geometric core.

## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this video

These are the creator's published instructions, unedited.

## Prompt

```text
Create a cinematic browser-based 3D world that can be explored freely with a camera, focused on breathtaking landscapes and extraordinary original architecture. Fill the world with huge strange buildings, monumental structures, surreal ruins, cliffs, valleys, forests, water, and unusual ultra-detailed forms that feel mysterious and awe-inspiring. This is not a game and not combat-focused, the goal is pure exploration, atmosphere, composition, and visual discovery. Make the world feel epic, highly detailed, and completely original, with architecture that looks weird, ambitious, and unforgettable.
```

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

A cinematic fantasy world of mountain ranges, deep valleys, towering structures, bridges, and a glowing celestial centerpiece.

- Color: Muted blue-gray and teal shadows contrast with warm peach, amber, and coral highlights.
- Type: Stylized low-poly 3D environment with atmospheric lighting and a cinematic, painterly finish.
- Framing: Wide vistas layer foreground structures against expansive valleys and distant jagged mountains; some views center on monumental architecture or a luminous focal point.
- Structure: A connected-feeling landscape combining cliffs, waterfalls, elevated buildings, suspended bridges, and vertical architectural forms.
