概要
クイックファクト: The narrow alleys, over 600 years old, feature tilted shopfronts that almost overhang the cobbled street. The original name refers to the butcher shops that once operated there, leaving pieces of meat hanging above the sidewalks.
見どころ: One of the most surprising curiosities is that some houses have upper floors that lean out up to 2 meters above the street. Wandering here offers a true sensory journey between ancient architecture and shops with hand-painted signs, between the scents of spices and fresh bread.
インサイダーヒント
- Wear comfortable shoes as the cobblestones are uneven.
- Take photos near the old lanterns for a nice light-shadow contrast.
- Avoid peak hours between noon and 3pm for a quieter visit.
- Do not miss the traditional confectionery shop for a tasty souvenir.
