[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
During my latest walking around the old city of Chalkis, I cann't stop and photo one of the oldest houses in town.

I don't know much details. It's opposite church of Agia Paraskevi at the homonymous district and under the main door has a Venetian blazonry, with a lion on it. You can see it if you look above the main door. Rumors said that the first owner of this house find the blazonry and putted on the main door. But I think it's authentic.

I'd love to see the blazonry in detail, Μπάμπη. Isn't that lion just a Venetion symbol though, not a family weapon ? TFS.

I viewed the shot of the door before this one. It's nice to see that the wonderful color green used in the door is used throughout the building.
