The walk starts as the city wakes — cobblestones still cool beneath your soles, traffic a distant hum while churches and stone dragons loom like characters from a half-forgotten story. You move through narrow lanes where a lost river once dared the city, and a Roman temple's shadow hints at rites practised long before St. Paul's rose above the skyline.
