I've always loved places that exude character—where every house, street, and even sign seems to tell its own story. That's how I remember Carmel-by-the-Sea, and recently discovered Carmel City Carmel by the Sea , which literally brought those memories to life. Everything on the website is lovingly crafted—the descriptions of streets, galleries, and traditions convey a special, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to return again and again. Reading the texts feels like strolling along familiar paths, smelling the ocean and hearing the cries of seagulls in the distance.
