When travelling through Italy, it became apparent that so many of the villages were founded on the high point of the land. I guess for defence from the marauding hordes.
Could this have been built on a high point of land and started off with a clear view of the lowlands and only been recently jammed in by other constructions.
Everybody's looking for something. Mary Ann is looking for the real Beirut, whatever that means. These are the photos she takes along the way.
You can browse around the archives here or check out her other blogs. There's one from a few years ago, back when she blogged about art. And then there's another from '09 when she lived in St. Louis (USA).
