Caernarfon Castle uploaded on 3 December 2007

The view over the river Seiont from Caernarfon (or Caernarvon) Castle.

When I visited in 2001 the river was almost completely dry and a "floating" restaurant's* supports could clearly be seen.

Peyrepertuse Castle uploaded on 12 November 2007

View from one section of the castle to another. Rope handrails are provided as the climb to the castle is quite steep and within the castle there are some very thin paths and ledges remaining to reach additional sections of the castle.

The Mystery of Luk Chau Village uploaded on 12 November 2007

Interior of rear room in an abandoned mansion in Luk Chau Village.

Many of the houses appear as though the occupants literally "up and left". I have been unable to find any information as to what happened in the village to cause it to now be semi-abandoned.

Carousel and Medieval Cite uploaded on 12 November 2007

Just outside the entrance to the Medieval Cite there is a carousel and a cemetery.

When I visited Carcassonne in 2000 the old Carousel which had been there for many years had burnt down and a smaller one stood in its place.
