This is pretty cool. I have to read up some more on this castle. I'm a bit intrigued by things like these.

Anytime man. I'm going to try hard to keep up with more of your posts.

Which time I visit the fortress and do not get tired to marvel at its power and beauty! Be sure to come.
Talk about the castle is meaningless - you need to see and visit! Unequivocally visit and uniquely with the guide. Otherwise all the beauty and history of this castle will remain in memory just like architecture! welcome to my blog @evgenya86
