I have been there, and it is like going back again. Have you noticed the wagon ruts carved into the stones in the street from years of use? It is a giant outdoor museum that you can reach out and touch when you visit and this site makes it seem so real. Nothing behind glass or a rope here, and you can imagine the smell of baking bread or the noise of the street as you walk.
