Beautiful Florence and its wonders seen from above

La splendida Firenze vista dall'alto

Beautiful Florence and its wonders seen from above.
A weekend spent in Florence, at the beginning of October but with summer temperatures is unmatched.
I didn't take many photos this time (also because there are tons of them on the net) but obviously I couldn't help but publish some taken from the splendid Piazzale Michelangelo, the most famous panoramic point in the city.
I'll add more in the next few days.

To see all the photos I took in the beautiful Tuscan town, click here:

Piazzale Michelangelo in Florence is the most famous observation point of the city panorama, reproduced in countless postcards and an obligatory destination for tourists visiting the city.
It was built in 1869 based on a design by the architect Giuseppe Poggi on a hill just south of the historic center, to complete the redevelopment work on the left bank of the Arno.

Sestri Levante seen from Mandrella

Sestri Levante seen from Mandrella.
Today I was on Mandrella and walked with the dog to Punta Manara.
You will say: great effort! But the first bit, going up from San Bartolomeo, is no joke.
In any case the photos from up there come out wonderfully, obviously because the view is exceptional!
And if you are close to sunset the colors are truly exceptional!

I'll add a couple of things:

  • I thank Cri again for agreeing to write here… living together can be annoying now that everywhere, in a couple of clicks, you can make your own decent blog. You'll see that we'll continue to have fun.
  • if we both post a couple of times a day I think I'll have to leave a few more per page otherwise my friends won't find the ones they replied to (eh, eh, eh!)
  • Happy April 25th to all. We will spend it, as tradition, in Sant’Olcese… obviously in the next few days the photos will arrive!

Una vecchia panoramica di Genova

Panoramica di Genova.
Come promesso ecco subito una nuova immagine. Sempre Genova, il punto più o meno è lo stesso del post precedente ma questa volta è una panoramica.
Non avendo a disposizione un grandangolo mi sono dovuto adattare incollando tre foto diverse ma il risultato non sembratroppo male…
