Today the planning and research started for a newly proposed driving/walking tour of historical and archeological gems of the area.
The new tour will be up and running in October and will take place during the cooler months of the year 😊
Today I revisted Baul, home of the newly renovated train station and the truly impressive iron railway bridge (designed by Gustavo Eiffel).
Interestingly, Baul only came into existence because of the railway. Old maps show that there was only a farmhouse located there prior to the building of the railway. At it’s peak Baul was home to several thousand people, whilst the latest census shows a population of just 188.
