Walk through the ancient city of honey

But there is a more simple choice, that is from morning to night, all over town high streets and back lanes.

We wake up in the morning, on the outskirts of the town in the top of the hill to choose a bright and smooth seat a cup of cappuccino, a cup of espresso, hot coffee to warm the body, immediately wake up the brain. Looking ahead is the inexhaustible pastoral scenery. After satiate, go to the town center.
