I made this picture in Germany in the city Monschau. This house lies to the river the Rur and all hanging flowers attracted my attention. It is very beautiful old with profession works place according to German construction style. History: The city is located in the hills of the Eifel, in the narrow valley of the Rur river. The historic city center wasn't destroyed in World War II, thus the many half-timbered houses and narrow streets nearly unchanged for 300 years make it a popular tourist attraction nowadays. Historically the main industry of the city were cloth-mills.

This is a borough where you gladly return. There a lot of old houses
stand and there are also a castle on top of a mount. There its
streets which are not broader than a car.
Thanks for your fine responses.

If you love something, set it free. It it comes back to you, it is yours. If it does not, it was never meant to be. Wil

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes
