Our town is on this great big hill with great big hills surrounding it. The alleyways are as close to straight up and down as they could be, no steps. Everything is built accordingly. Is there a better way to construct the city? Sure, but they would never do it. Everything here has its own history, its own story that would be forgotten if torn down. There is a building that is in the middle of the square that was built during some of the darkest days of the city. It would be easy to take it down and expand the view of the square or make room for another quintessential Italian café, but they don't. Good or bad, the building is part of the town. It shows where they've been and what they had to overcome to get to where they are. ​It is such a stark difference from what we see back home. We want new, fast, convenient, shiny, and stuffy stuff. Maybe the town of Castiglion Fiorentino no longer needs a good defensive position for war ​and doesn't need slopes for animals to easily maneuver anymore, but they definitely don't need more stuff instead.
