The tower of the Nicolosio Lomellino palace, known as the minaret or the mirador, in Genoa.
Every time I happen to pass by Piazza del Portello (to tell the truth, it hasn't happened to me that many times...) I keep my nose in the air to see this tower that is right above the monumental Giuseppe Garibaldi gallery.
The last time I took a photo of it and, to write this post, I discovered that it is part of the splendid Nicolosio Lomellino palace, which has its main entrance on via Garibaldi, and is called the Mirador or Minaret Tower (for its Arabesque style).
