At first glance the pictures of Ville es Nouaux look great when seen as thumbnails. However, when you look at the full-sized image it all looks a bit sterile. A bit too well maintained.

Baza, is the site as 'unambient' as it looks? Does visiting it have the same effect - i.e. as you approach you go 'wow' and when you get there you go 'oh dear'?

The simple answer is:"Yes."

It's in an urban setting, within a well maintained park. My eyes did light up when I first saw the stones. Then I looked around and thought:"Whoever has done this has gone too far."

To the residents' credit, there's no broken bottles or litter, as we'd usually find in such a modern setting.

I was reminded of [[Cullerie]].* I don't think it's quite that bad.
