Back to the Future!

Not sure what these were! We came across this building on our way to the cinema. There were several old buildings being renovated.


This was 2 blocks away from our apartment. I almost expected to see a knight jousting or something!


This steeple was our landmark. Our apartment was not far from it.


This is just one of the towers that were in this city. At the center of the market is a tower that was probably used by guards way back when to protect the castle. It was so odd to see it with a McDonald's right next to it!




There was such an odd mixture of very old with new in this city. I truly felt misplaced in time. The cobblestone streets that you could almost here the horses' hooves echoing on the stones, yet the only horse power was in the cars driving on the streets. There were also several "entrances" to side streets or maybe even a whole new universe! We would turn a corner and there was another doorway to a tunnel or stairs that led waaaaayyyyyy up to another part of the city. It was all so surreal.



This is my favorite building. The picture doesn't do it justice. It was just so awesome to be standing in front of! I almost felt like I was in Russia!
