South

 See It On A Postcard's Thursday Postcard Hunt for Cities in Southern Europe

Night falls in Toledo which is surrounded on three sides by the Tagus River. The Alcazar fortification dominates the highest part of the city, always a useful location if under siege, as has happened in past.  The cathedral occupies the other high point.
Arezzo in Tuscany described a destination for "culture without the crowds". The view is of the arcades of Via Roma, a covered shopping street. A  welcome cafe-bar beckons in the distance to rest those tired tourist feet.

Arezzo would be a great destination!
Toledo is a really nice place

Covered walkways are so underused here in snowy Canada. It's good to see that the two most important buildings (and the largest, I assume) are not obscured by tall towers.
