On contrary a 'medieval' city has TONS of opportunities to do Parkour. It just doesn't have the modern elements to it like bus stops and sign posts. The very structures itself (as you can see a clear example in very old cities, or cities of third world countries too seem to share similar characteristics - think Thief 3 or Assassin's Creed designed cities) have uneven rooftops, cramp buildings with close spaces inbetween, no standard heights (one building is tall and right next to it short etc.), wide open teracces and balconies, clothes lines etc.

The only limit is your imagination there :)

And in one of my writeups, Jaedaxia supposedly is the creator of Parkour in Aelyria lol. Well, I never got through with it, so its not official :p
