People can be so stupid - it does not have to be vandalism as such, just tourists thinking "I'll take a little souvenir", but if thousands of tourists frequent the place, there will be nothing left after a few weeks.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-76402876027366895082017-06-07T10:13:35.305+02:002017-06-07T10:13:35.305+02:00I can recall a time when churches were never locke...I can recall a time when churches were never locked and they were respected too. I love churches (even though I no longer have any faith) and the peace and quiet that they often offer. Sant'Anna and the bridge are certainly very attractive (and photogenic).Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-31256631364142069872017-05-29T11:00:40.909+02:002017-05-29T11:00:40.909+02:00Most of the time, it was as empty of people as it ...Most of the time, it was as empty of people as it seems. And when there were many others around, I simply did not take pictures.

Clicking on the pictures enlarges them, and you'll be able to see better that there are actually some people about :-)<br />We did not meet many other people while we were on the paths, but down there at the river and near the church there were some.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-84479496814700719372017-05-28T16:12:12.420+02:002017-05-28T16:12:12.420+02:00What fun to have so many new, and beautiful, place...What fun to have so many new, and beautiful, places to explore...All those ruins must have sparked your imagination. That bridge makes me feel a bit nervous, though. Was it really as empty of people as your pictures make it seem?

Wish that could be me!<br />The sound of the rushing water is like nothing else, is it?<br />Once again, I am amazed at the lack of people in the photos!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-56537710824982531932017-05-26T22:35:32.383+02:002017-05-26T22:35:32.383+02:00I am not sure, Jennifer, but I think they do open ...I am not sure, Jennifer, but I think they do open for service/mass regularly and probably upon request for groups.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-36570968549778137702017-05-26T15:58:01.476+02:002017-05-26T15:58:01.476+02:00Oops..."locked" of course.Oops..."locked" of course.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12512800812290518552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-18396462645001549322017-05-26T15:57:20.738+02:002017-05-26T15:57:20.738+02:00How beautiful.
