Arts, Culture & Markets

Wander down almost any street in town and you’ll find a layer of history peeking through. It might be in the curve of a gable, the smell of fresh bread from a family-run bakery, or the rhythm of live jazz drifting from a weekend market. This is a place that doesn’t force its culture — it just lives it.
