The Royal Gate in Finalborgo.
Although there are several entrances or gates to enter the ancient and splendid village of Finalborgo, the one called Royal is certainly the most beautiful and well-known.
Partly because of the frescoes on the outside, partly because there are the old walls and partly because you can glimpse, just behind the walls, the church and the bell tower of San Biagio.
A sight that welcomes you!

I took dozens of photos in the beautiful western town, click here to see them all:
The town was developed in the Finalese hinterland, not directly on the sea to be more protected against possible Saracen landings on the coast, in an easily defensible place: the confluence of the Aquila torrent with the Pora torrent, whose riverbeds form a single natural moat, later reinforced by the city walls, which defended the town on the east-south-west sides, while the northern side of the town was naturally protected by the spur of the Becchignolo hill.
