Up through the canals and into the castle: Annecy

After class, and if there isn't a cultural activity, I take my bike and go down to the old part of town. It takes me about 20 minutes to make it there as I am living in Annecy -Le Vieux, an adjoining town to Annecy.
In my last visit I ended up in the castle and went through a little visit. Admission is 5 euros, but as a student. you pay half. To my surprise, the castle is used as a cultural exhibit and also performances.In spite of this you were still able to imaging the place without the modern art and other historical exhibits. At the top, where the entrance to the castle lays, there is a very quaint bed and breakfast hotel that overlooks the town and the castle. For those of you interested in visiting Annecy, found out that you can spend the night for only 80 euros, which is inexpensive when you see the location.
Through the streets and canals I later
ended up at the jail, which is of a triangular shape and surrounded by water on two sides.
Cafes, ice-cream shops, bakeries galore and all kinds of restaurants can be found throughout the city. Truly it is a town to walk and enjoy.
