Uno dei palazzi più famosi e turistici della città vietnamita. Fu costruito a fine Ottocento sotto la influenza francese nell’Indocina.

The statues outside the Cathedral of Palermo.
The most important church in Palermo and the statues that adorn its front garden.
I still have many images that I took in the summer during my visit to this splendid monument of Palermo.
As always, I'll post them diluted over time.

With Gualtiero Offamilio the cathedral is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin represented in three different iconographies: one is the Dormition of the Mother of God or «Koimesis tes Theotokou» or «Dormitio Virginis», which belongs to the Byzantine tradition, the other two belonging to the Latin tradition: the Assumption and the Coronation in Heaven.

Linh Ung Pagoda near Da Nang in Vietnam.
The Buddhist temple on the Thọ Quang peninsula, north-east of the Vietnamese city.
It is one of the most beautiful areas that can be reached from the city in a short time. The peninsula, formed by some mountains, is already very beautiful to see and a few kilometers from the center you can find this temple.
The entrance is already very impressive, with its three doors (first photo). Then you enter and in the main square the temple and the many bonsai that are in front of it (second photo).
Finally, after walking around the pagoda area which is a succession of small temples, statues and decorative trees, you go to see the statue of Lady Buddha, the attraction visible even from the city: a 67 meter high statue.
It is not a very old temple but it is certainly very, very suggestive!

I searched online but there is very little in Italian; there is the official tourism page of the city of Da Nang which describes the area danangfantasticity.com and also on Wikipedia, in English, there is very little.

Il chiosco Ribaudo di Palermo.
Per la città di Palermo si incontrano spesso dei piccoli chioschi molto artistici.
Non sono mai riuscito a capirne la storia e qualche tempo fa, quando ero in città con la nave, ne ho fotografato uno di fronte al Teatro Politeama Garibaldi, in pieno centro.
Cercando un poco su internet ho trovato che questi monumenti liberty erano stati costruiti per vendere bibite e biglietti. Quello che ho fotografato io non credo sia più utilizzato. Quello di fronte al Teatro Massimo è ora un tabacchino.
Qui potete trovare qualche informazione aggiuntiva sui chioschi: italialiberty.it and arte.it.

Alcune foto di una delle cappelle della magnifica chiesa palermitana. In particolare l’altare della cappella di San Pietro e Sant’Agata.
Come in uno scatto precedente della Basilica dei Fieschi in Liguria, l’agnello (ma in questa foto potrebbe anche essere una pecora) e’ nuovamente presente nelle raffigurazioni religiose cattoliche.

The statue of the sailor walking in Ibiza.
In the central square of the town of the very famous Balearic island, this statue stands out.
Obviously, being in front of the port, it could only be a tribute to the many sailors who sail the seas from this island too.

Il rosone della Basilica dei Fieschi a Cogorno.
Qualche tempo fa sono stato a visitare e fotografare la Basilica dei Fieschi, poco lontano da casa mia.
Oltre all’aspetto severo e degli interni, fa bella mostra il rosone della facciata che rappresenta un agnello (agnus in latino appunto) che da sempre è uno dei simboli del cristianesimo.
La foto mi sembra venuta benissimo, per quello che ve l’ho proposta in un post singolo.

The statues of the Cathedral of Palermo.
The garden that is next to this splendid church of Palermo has walls and entrances decorated with these beautiful statues of Saints (or at least I think that's what they are).
These elements also contribute to making the monument extraordinary.

Fontana del Nettuno a Napoli.
Questo bel monumento, fotografato dal di dietro per far vedere la ciminiera gialla, e’ nella bella piazza che sta di fronte alla Stazione Marittima di Napoli.
Se dal porto crociere si vuole andare a piedi al centro bisogna passare per forza in questa piazza e non si puo’ non notare la grande e bella fontana.

La fontana del Nettuno (detta anche fontana Medina) è una fontana monumentale della città di Napoli. oluta dal viceré Enrique de Guzmán, conte di Olivares, il quale governò a Napoli dal 1595 al 1599, fu effettivamente lavorata tra il 1600 e il 1601, durante il viceregno del conte di Lemos, su direzione di Domenico Fontana. Alla realizzazione della fontana parteciparono anche Michelangelo Naccherino (che realizzò il Nettuno), Angelo Landi e Pietro Bernini (che scolpì i mostri marini).
