There are many different ways of seeing a town for the first time. One of them is to walk around it, guide-book 26 hand. Of course, we may 27 with our guide-books the history and 28 developments of a town and get to know them.
29 then, if we take our time and 30 in a town for a while, we may get to know it better. When we 31 it as a whole, we begin to have some 32 , which even the best guide-books do not
answer. Why is the town just 33 this —— this shape, this plan, this size? Why do its streets 34 in this particular way, and not in any 35 way?
Here even the best guide-book 36 us. One can’t find the information in it about how a town has developed to the 37 appearance. It may not describe the original 38 of a town. However, one may get some idea of what it 39 look like by walking around the town. One can also imagine 40 the town was first planned and built. Then one can learn more about in what direction the town 41 to develop.
What is the 42 of studying towns in this way?For me, it is 43 a matter that one gets a greater depth of pleasure by visiting and seeing a town with one’s own eyes. A 44 visit to a town may help one better understand why it is attractive 45 just reading about it in a guide-book.
