Next to it rises the elegant bell tower, reaching towards the heavens as if trying to touch divinity itself. To complement this grandeur, we see charming houses nestled amidst rolling hillsides. These humble dwellings provide an intimate glimpse into daily life during this period of history. Their presence reminds us that while monumental structures may dominate our attention, it is ordinary people who bring life and vitality to any city.
