Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking across the gulf waters toward Murjan Island and the Corniche promenade, showing date palm fronds and coastal rocks in the foreground, the causeway bridge, traditional wooden dhows, and the spiral observation tower in the middle-ground, and the soft coastal city skyline fading into the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick date palm groves along the Corniche, manicured park lawns, and coastal mangroves.
