I went to there in summer of 2005 and 2006. There are always many tourists from all over the world to this city.
The city was surrounded by old old walls that were defending this town from enemies in Mid-century, probably.
The animated area of this town is still inside of the walls, so we have to pass the gate to enter the center of the town. This is pretty interesting for me, because there's no city in my country which is surrounded by walls like this.
In Japan, in Mid-century, castles were surrounded by huge walls and towns were also surrounding the castles. So, government was always protected by walls and town.
But in Europe, usually town is also surrounded by walls like this town. The center is always a church.
In this town, many houses have colorful columns in outside of walls. This is pretty.
And many houses are really crooked, it looked like they are almost turning down. But even though they are crooked, people are living as if it’s quite normal. This is really unbelievable thing in my country, but it’s interesting.
I found two crooked old houses, in the edge of animated area. They didn’t have colorful columns, they had really old natural wood columns that looked great for me. They looked like they are managing little private hotels. I liked the colors of these houses. And the small narrow road was also crooked and filled with pebbles. I tried to make a nostalgic atmosphere on my picture by using just few colors…
