We'll start with the view from the Citadel to get an overview. You can see that the "back" that is, the side not facing the river, is quite extensive. We'll start with the front-the side facing the river.
You can get here by walking up the stairs, tourist bus, or (my favorite) taking the funicular. We'll take a look at the funicular later.
Here is the gate just as you get off the funicular...
and look who's waiting for you just inside the gate...
Here's the inside view of the gate...
and the garden just inside the gate
Great fountain! This made me think of modern motherhood-what are you kids thinking???? drowning, fish bite, fin sticks, rock scrapes, toxic this and that. Still, what a great fountain to childhood freedom.
This horseman stands in front of the entrance. If you like the "Where's Waldo?" books, try Where's Marcia.
