It's a UNESCO site, there are thousands of lanes to explore and tons of history to uncover, it's home to the oldest university in the world and it's the largest car-free zone in the world...what else do you need?

Large tannery that provided a fascinating look at how animal hides are turned into leather. The colors, the smell, the activity of the workers below...quite an overwhelming but worthwhile experience.

Hope you can handle the pigeon poo smell and the way leather is handle. Not a place for animal lovers....
