Further down, there is a map or diagram of the area, showing streets labeled "Rue de la Mer," "Rue Baurnier," and "Rue des Dames," and a building marked "CASINO." There is also a scale indicating distances of 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 meters.

The text also provides historical details about the promenade, casino, and the beachgoers in Houlgate. It describes the atmosphere as one of elegance and social activity, with people enjoying the beach, the casino, and the musical entertainment. The text further discusses how photographs of Debussy were taken on the promenade, emphasizing the social and leisure aspects of the scene.
