carcassonne, france. here is a city straight out of lord of the rings and game of thrones. some of the ramparts date to gallo-roman times (100 bc to 400 ad), while most of the fortified city we strolled through was more medieval. here's a short video and some photos!
imagine riding to conquer a city in the middle ages and rolling up to this...
they build the entrances so that an invading army couldn't enter all at once
this reminded me of the game of thrones courtyard at winterfell
thinking of moving in...
some of the towers and walls are from the 400s... the horseshoe shaped tower to the right of center, for example
