GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:cityscape
French translation:paysage urbain

English to French translations [Non-PRO]
English term or phrase: cityscape
Just to give a title to a group of photos, which don't depict a certain building, but rather a panorama of the whole city (usually from air view). Paysage (landscape) is rather for rural areas, so how to say cityscape in French?

Thank you all!

P.S.: Somehow that feature when I requested answers in English doesn't seem to work, because everyone answered in French. I could mostly figure it out this time, but not everything, because my French is not that good. I only took 2 years about 30 years ago.
