Thank you and, yes I think so: I can only speak for the small bits of Spain which I've seen but the country does seem to have many charming little villages.

My mother and father -in - law have this exact pic when they went to Spain. My father-in-law is from there. A small world. My husband was happy to see this picture. Thank you for sharing. I showed this picture to my husband because it reminded me of the many I have see of their trip. Thanks again!

Thank you for telling me this. It is so satisfying to know that my photos have a special meaning for you and it is my pleasure to share images of one of my favourite areas of Europe. It is indeed a small world!!

In the shadow of the alley the structures of natural stones are great to see. It is the ancient art to produce such structures on ground and walls.

Beautiful - yes, but practical for high-heel tourists?

I didn't see any high heels ... mostly sandals. Perhaps the type of people who visits Pals are sensible ... or just old!!

Or inhabitants have their dates later and you can only listen the tip tap when they totter.

We must not know, let's enjoy the stones.
By the way, I was in east Europe where high heels are duty, stony way or not.

Do I know this way or do they all look equal?

There are quite a few medieval villages in this area and they all have similar stone buildings but this tower is distinct from other villages. All of the villages have their own special places eg. Pals has a beautiful church and clock tower, Peratallada has a lovely plaza and lots of arches. They are all beautiful in there own way and I love them all!!
