War and devastation to greenery and colors. The history in this city is so rich. I love history so it’s worth mentioning. The stories of the past are fascinating and terrifying at the same time. Below are some picture I took and their historic counterparts.

Next up Jewish Quarters. You can pay to get into the house and see all the really cool things. Also the graves are super super old and all askew. You can google it and see more pics.
