Ribbons

 

I saw a lot of doorways and windows in San Miguel De Allende decorated with rows of colourful ribbons like this one was. I asked around and apparently they are often used by shops to attract attention since large or flashy signs are not allowed by the UNESCO guidelines, to bring good luck, or just as decoration. This door could use some good luck but it seemed that there often wonderfully restored places behind such doors. I loved the ribbons.

What a beautiful spot of rainbow colour in an otherwise drab setting!

A great very old doorway with a lot of history.
