Carcassonne is an ancient city, and the fortifications that can be seen today were restored following its demolition in 1849.
Carcassonne is now a UNESCO World Heritage site.

That's like taking a step back in time. I'd love to go there.

I love the Bird on a wire.. which also happens to be one of my favorite Cohen songs !
The first one I like most. :)
Looks like you've been to some amazing places!
Great tour of an interesting place Kay!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
A beautiful place that I have read about and seen on TV Kay and your pictures bring it more to life. By the way i have been meaning to ask - what exactly is an "unfittie" and is it dangerous?
I very much like that lamp in the first photo!
This kind of place should be restored. It's so nice to see and visit historical places. So we in this new generation would appreciate of who we are today. Great shot and thanks for sharing.

Great shots. I love these old walled cities, there's nothing like that in my country.
What an awesome place!! And blue skies as well!! Doesn't get much better than that for great photos! And these are terrific, Kay! Thanks for sharing another part of your trip with us! Hope you have a great weekend!

Beautiful! I love to visit old castles, I spent much time in Germany years ago, and there they have, like France a lot of them. Beautiful blue sky aswell.
Have a nice weekend :)
That is a wondeful series of photo's. So interesting and beautiful.
I have great imaginations..with or without the lamp on the first shot, it looks like a tiara.. I also particularly like the wind vanes on the castles.
Wonderful series of photos! It looks like a beautiful place to visit.
Great sequence for this beautiful city. I love the architecture and beautiful skies.
great..i will be in France soon!
The roofs are fascinating, and I wondered about the interiors behind the windows in the fortifications.
Thanks, I enjoyed visiting Carcassonne!
Wow! Beautiful captures. The first one is a winner.
Aptly named, "Blue skies of Carcassonne, France". The pictures of the beautiful buildings and backdrop really capture the essence. Thanks!
Bits of buildings, lots of blue!

A little birdie told me,
Although I don’t know why,
That if I were to look up,
Way up into the sky,
I’d see some wondrous planets,
The moon and sun and stars –
There before my very eyes
Blazed Jupiter and Mars!

Blue and silver, - fabulous Kay!
What gorgeous skies ... and that city is marvellous!
You sure had some clear blue skies for your visit to this interesting city.
I do enjoy seeing the world through your eyes.
These shots are awesome. I would love to be there. Thanks for sharing.
What an interesting place to visit--thank you for taking us there. Love the first shot. Mickie :)
Fantastic shots of the fortified city.
The skies are beautiful and the buildings magnificent. This is a place I would love to visit someday. The gargoyle looks lonely, was he the only one?
What an incredible place - I love the conical roof on each of the towers, which you've captured perfectly against that amazing sky. It looks like perpetual summer. This is yet another place I have to visit. That "must see" list is getting longer and longer the more I read your blog.
Never been to Carcassonne, did you like it?
Beautiful pictures and certainly a lovely area. However, have you ever read any of Kate Mosse's books about Carcassonne? Shows it in a completely different light! Have a great weekend x
fun collection of photos, you did capture the spirit and details of a view of Parisian skies
thanks for sharing with SWF
What a bright day you had in this beautiful place, it's in our bucket list! :)
God bless you!
