The city being a kind of multicultural hub, architectural and cultural 
influences come from different parts of the world. The Temple complex is 
typically Indian (Nagara-style sakhara) to something more mixed 
Indian/Chinese in front. To the right, the Poseidon temple is typically 
Greek; the citadel in the back is based on a Mycenaean ground 
plan/elevation (Tiryns) and the old palace will have Cretan elements. It 
seems a bit extreme perhaps, but it shows the city as I dream it... ;-)

I am working on some alternatives. Maybe as some intermediate technique...

Drainage and water supply are still a big problem...
