Set in a vale and surrounded by rivers and hills, all emptying to the ever nearing sea, the city of York is a photogenic journey of time. This blog journey also includes photos of Renaissace-Illuminating York www.renaissanceyork.org.uk for more info.Please respect the copyright of the photographer.

I wonder how long that took.
Well depends, the city walls were started by the Romans in around AD71, the one you see here is what is left from about 1100 to 1300ish. Modified by the Victorians. The leaves from about spring to autumn.
