The landscape is formulated on a territorial system but is not only the natural formation of the territory, it is also the morphological configuration of a functional space and its cultural and idiosyncratic context.
The cultural condition of the landscape is its own substance, which gives the place the identification of the people who inhabit it and their characteristics.
The Landscape is a Place and its image..!
