What a shame!
Be prepared. As we walked through the beautifully cobbled streets of the old walled section of the city we were of course loving the ambience created by the old world structures of the streets. Lined with shops and cafes the streets were alive with people going about there business and school children flirting with each other. But it was also impossible to ignore a more disappointing view. The walls, store fronts, security shutters and ...everything had been defaced with graffiti. It was impossible for us to rectify. We thought we graffiti-immune from the U.S. but this seemed a shame. Finally, we just had to look past it and move on.
