Time for fire torches to be lighten!

When everyone is comfortable and used to canoe we will start paddling towards the city centre. But first, lets fire up our fire flamed torches, this makes this experience even more romantic or mystical - as you wish. Our first stop - old city fortification system, also called as "Jonas Hill".
