Stylish square.
Around the square are some of the city's most expensive grocery stores and specialty shops.
Beside L´Opéra.
Cathedrals are never the brightest of spaces so I was glad that I was still able to capture some interior shots of Norwich Cathedral despite it being a very dull day. I had to resort to 1600 ISO though and even then I was handholding some quite long exposures.......

From Wikipedia : "Norwich Cathedral is an English cathedral located in Norwich, Norfolk, dedicated to the Holy and Undivided Trinity. It is the cathedral church for the Church of England Diocese of Norwich and is one of the Norwich 12 heritage sites.
The cathedral was begun in 1096 and constructed out of flint and mortar and faced with a cream-coloured Caen limestone. A Saxon settlement and two churches were demolished to make room for the buildings. The cathedral was completed in 1145 with the Norman tower still seen today topped with a wooden spire covered with lead. Several episodes of damage necessitated rebuilding of the east end and spire but since the final erection of the stone spire in 1480 there have been few fundamental alterations to the fabric.
The large cloister has over 1,000 bosses including several hundred carved and ornately painted ones.
Norwich Cathedral has the second largest cloisters in England, only outsized by Salisbury Cathedral. The cathedral close is one of the largest in England and one of the largest in Europe and has more people living within it than any other close. The cathedral spire, measuring at 315 ft or 96 m, is the second tallest in England despite being partly rebuilt after being struck by lightning in 1169, just 23 months after its completion, which led to the building being set on fire. Measuring 461 ft or 140.5 m long and, with the transepts, 177 ft or 54 m wide at completion, Norwich Cathedral was the largest building in East Anglia."

While you're looking upwards through the moderns and high skyscrapers, some apartments come out. I love the contrast between new skyscrapers' modernity and NYC's "old style"!
環繞廣場的其他建築物多分屬各種行會組織，如船夫、裁縫、粉刷匠等等，每個行會建築的門上的雕塑是本行會的崇敬人物或象徵性動物的雕塑。由於修建時期的不同，這些大廈體現出哥特式、巴羅克式、路易十四式等等多種多樣的建築風格。其中正面裝飾有19尊歷代布拉班特公爵半身雕像的布拉班特公爵大廈最為威嚴而壯觀，這組由六座大廈組成的建築群建於1698年，是磨房主、木匠等行會所在地，而現在這裏已成為可哥和巧克力博物館。
i've always had a thing for alleys, narrow streets and the ways less traveled. i may have captured this frontage on little minna street. forgot to note the exact location. i also have a thing for uncluttered lines, so, as much as i love greenery, i'd vote to disappear the palm and the funky wooden thing with nails half- pounded into the top.
