Carcassonne, France

This is today's Wikipedia* photo of the day - I just like the look of it:
(click on it to view it larger--it's worth it, trust me)


"Panorama of the fortified city of Carcassonne (Aude, France) and the Pont Vieux crossing the Aude River. The fortress of Carcassonne was considered impregnable and never conquered. It was begun by the Romans and built up through the years. It fell into disrepair, but was restored in the 19th century. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site."

*Bonus fact of the day: I love Wikipedia
