Prompt template
Create a highly detailed, photorealistic, Instagram-worthy travel postcard diorama of ${destination}, viewed from a slightly elevated angle. In the foreground, place an authentic vintage postcard with rounded corners, visible paper texture, a postal stamp, a handwritten travel note, and a postmark. From the postcard, let an intricate 3D papercraft world emerge, featuring the destination’s most iconic elements, built from layered paper-cut terrain, architecture, landmarks, vegetation, and coastline.
Include a stylized collectible-traveler character standing naturally within the papercraft scene. Give the character a premium cinematic look, expressive pose, realistic proportions, a fashionable travel outfit inspired by the destination’s local climate and culture, and subtle storytelling accessories. Integrate the character seamlessly into the miniature world.
Use a softly blurred real-world view of ${destination} in the background, creating depth and a connection between reality and imagination. Keep the postcard tack-sharp against creamy background bokeh. The handwritten note should feel personal, poetic, and specific to the destination, expressing discovery, wonder, and hidden-gem travel. Add elegant postal marks, a destination stamp, and subtle ink illustrations without cluttering the composition.
Visual hierarchy: blurred real destination → authentic postcard → emerging papercraft landscape → traveler character. Reflect local building styles in the architecture, use a destination-inspired color palette, and limit landmarks to 1–3 iconic features. Make the papercraft elements emerge naturally from the postcard surface. Avoid generic tourist attractions and overcrowded scenes; emphasize a dreamy, storybook feeling of discovering a hidden gem.
