Relief and landscape

Une corniche peut désigner un élément décoratif entourant un objet ou une route surplombant un à-pic. Dans ce cas, les deux définitions peuvent être valides vu l'axe en question. L'adjectif vert fait sans doute référence à l'abondante verdure présente dans cette partie de la commune. (remark in French, as published)
