The air here carries a faint, earthy scent, a subtle perfume of damp soil and distant pines, particularly potent after a summer rain. Streets are lined with mature trees, their branches forming verdant canopies that, in autumn, ignite in a blaze of russet and gold, casting intricate shadows on the well-kept sidewalks.
