WEEKEND REFLECTION--Smederevo Fortress and moat

Here is a view of the 15th century castle and moat located in the town of Smederevo, a mere 45 kms from Belgrade.

Impenetrable
Was once the mighty castle

Wonderful photo and haiku! That place is pretty old. Are you going to show us the interior? Beautiful reflections. I wonder how effective those moats were in keeping out invaders. I guess it would certainly slow them down!
