Display CPT taxonomies as an archive page

Hello Stack Exchange people,

I created a custom post type called articles.
I also created a taxonomy city for that specific post type.

I can create a custom post and set a city to it and it gives me the url I’m wishing to read this page.

https://www.example.com/blog/city_name/title_of_the_article/

The thing I wish to do is to create a city page that will act like the regular archive.php but just for the city of the custom post types.

For example, I created an article with a city set to “Tunis” so my URL is:

https://www.example.com/blog/tunis/my_article/

I would like this url: https://www.example.com/blog/tunis/
to be the archive page for the article with the city set to “Tunis“.

I ran multiple tests but it didn’t work (404 error).

For info, I don’t have a archive-city.php page created.

Here is my code for CPT and the taxonomy.
(For now and considering the code I’m showing, the archive page is available at:
https://www.example.com/blog/articles/)

register_post_type( 'article', 
    array( 'labels' => array(
        'name' => 'Articles', 
        'singular_name' => 'Article',

and

function resource_type() {

        'items_list_navigation'      => __( 'Items list navigation', 'snt' ),
    );
    $args = array(
        'labels'                     => $labels,
        'hierarchical'               => true,
        'public'                     => true,
        'show_ui'                    => true,
        'show_admin_column'          => true,
        'show_in_nav_menus'          => true,
        'show_tagcloud'              => true,
        'rewrite'                    => array('slug' => 'city')
    );
    register_taxonomy( 'city', array( 'article' ), $args );
} 
add_action( 'init', 'resource_type', 0 );

To get https://www.example.com/blog/city/ as the archive page, what am I missing?
