Far from the tourists' crowd...

Strasbourg - Alsace (France)

It’s difficult when one visits a town so rich of architectural masterpieces to find a parallel way to explore it, leaving the most beaten tracks for the guided tours…
It’s nearly impossible to not remain in reverent admiration of a perspective, suddenly discovered at the end of a street.
It’s hard to not feel like jumping into a “full immersion” in the traditional itinerary.
Nevertheless, we have found out the deep beauty of Strasbourg also in its apparently banal little street, where there is not any souvenirs shop either (smile).
The old stones have a very evocative language, which is easier to understand in the silence and in the peace of an empty street.
October sun smiles.
