The weather here is usually nice, with warm summers perfect for playing outside and cooler winters for cozying up indoors.

A City as Old as Your Grandpa's Grandpa!

This city is SO old! It was started by the Romans over 2,000 years ago, even before dinosaurs were gone (just kidding!). They built a fort here because the rivers were so important for traveling.
