I love how the Church steeple catches the eye as it's the only building without a red roof! :) reminds me of our trip to Berlin and Paris in Feb this year.........The buildings all seem to be so close together and so similar to the ones we saw in Berlin....we could've easily been at the same place

@Mandy: Thank you very much, Mandy! Photos from Berlin would be great, as I have none.

Reza from Montreal, Canada

Interesting shot! I like the knight sculpture in there. Is the city famous because of knights?

9 Oct 2007 11:03pm

@Reza: Hi Reza, many thanks! Graz is not famous for knights, but for the knights armour produced there. There is a big museum full of knights amours + a lot of history of the craftsmenship.
