On Saturday we took a road trip with Elder and Sister Sommerfeldt to Calcata built in 976 AD. It is located north of Rome and was well worth the trip.
Here is a website of an art studio in Calcata that briefly gives some history of this ancient city http://www.metamorphosi.net/eng/calcata.htm

A view of Calcata before driving to the gate of the city. No cars allowed in the city because there are no roads in the city, only cobble stone walkways.
Elder's Burt and Sommerfelt looking over a wall of the city into the valley below.
Turning each corner of the narrow streets we came upon quaint scenes.
Three stairways leading to different homes or shops.
A small place to eat on the edge of the city, with a breathtaking view.
One of many narrow passage ways within the city.

I love that I can click on these pictures and see the details up close! Your day-trips are amazing. Thanks for sharing!
