Oh my those walls.... So impressive, can only imagine what it would have been like several hundred years ago approaching those walls... even as a friend or foe... they are very mighty.
I used to teach history and i find ancient architecture/city planning just so interesting. Everywhere we went it Europe i just collected all the old maps/houseplans of the buildings.
thanks for sharing
They are imposing to say the least. I will have to read up on more of the history as to how they were attacked and defended. The main entrance to the city has a drawbridge at least and it all used to be surrounded by a moat.
