A view is what can be seen in a range of vision. View may also be used as a synonym of point of view in the first sense. View may also be used figuratively or with special significance—for example, to imply a scenic outlook or special vantage point:

The barrier Rhine hath flashed, through battle-smoke,

On men who gaze heart-smitten by the view,

As if all Germany had felt the shock!

- from The Germans on the Heights of Hochheim (1816) by William Wordsworth
