In reply to Marcia. I won't claim any bravery; that's why I generally just looked into the back rooms and didn't enter them!

Pretty gutsy, Rachel but I agree: this is where the true story of the place lies – beyond the areas where they want you to see. I’ve always been intrigued to find out what’s being kept from view but I’m usually too much of a chicken (what if the floor gives way, or something falls on me) to actually follow the forbidden road.

Hi Rachel. Great post! There is always something to be said for taking a taste of the forbidden (or at least off the beaten path) fruit! Your shots definitely feed the imagination. #TPThursday

In reply to Tanja (the Red phone box travels). What can I say? I was young and reckless... though I can't say I wouldn't do it again! But this time it was allowed because of the art exhibit being held in those attic rooms.

In reply to Ruth – Tanama Tales.

It’s the whole off-the-beaten-track thing. We want a different experience than ‘the masses’.

In reply to Brooke of Passport Couture. I suppose that's why some places give 'behind the scenes' tours: people want to see what's behind the image.

Rachel, I find places like this interesting. I guess it is a trait of curious people. Once in Munich, one of my friends needed to use the restroom. After walking around, we found this restaurant but nobody was around. We saw signs for the restroom pointing towards the second floor. We went up and ended up in more sumptuous dining room you can imagine. I was beautiful! We used he restroom and left. But, we didn’t see anybody while at the restaurant.
