The gaslamps flicker and the moss-draped oaks bend low as your group gathers around a phone screen, flashlight ready. You shuffle across cobblestones, guided by an app that hands you riddles and photo prompts while the city’s old squares keep quiet watch. At night the shadows feel alive; by day the same route reads as an architectural tour of antebellum mansions and ironwork.
