A Madonnina in via Asilo Maria Teresa in Sestri Levante.
Walking around my Sestri I always try to frame objects or unpublished details to share them and, perhaps, get some more information by searching online or waiting for some visitor to add some news.
In this case my attention was drawn to this small Madonnina that emerges from the wall that borders via Asilo Maria Teresa and, given the position, I imagine that it is a statuette of what used to be the asylum.

L’arte di piegare gli asciugamani per le cabine.
In moltissimi luoghi di vacanza, quando ritorni in camera o quando vi entri per la prima volta, trovi sul letto qualche asciugamano piegato ad arte per assumere la forma di qualche animale.
In nave ci sono ancora moltissimi cabinisti che conoscono come farli e, sulla nave in cui ero lo scorso anno (la Costa Firenze), a fine crociera si faceva una parata in piscina e il dipartimento Housekeeping faceva due tavoli di questi animaletti!
Ovviamente tutti i passeggeri in coda a fotografare!

The stone staircase of the church of San Pietro in Portovenere.
One of the symbols of the village of Portovenere is the stone church dedicated to San Pietro.
Built on the rocky spur that from the center of the town penetrates into the sea parallel to the Palmaria Island.
This is a glimpse of the staircase that takes visitors to the terrace next to the bell tower.

Il moderno fronte mare di Malaga in Spagna.
Pur non essendo mai uscito una volta in questa bella città spagnola, eppure mi ci sono fermato decine di volte, qualche tempo fa mi sono armato ti macchina fotografica e, come ogni tanto faccio, ho scattato alcune foto dai ponti più alti della nave.
Ho trovato un fronte mare moderno e pieno di grattacieli!

Malaga è un comune della Spagna di 579076 abitanti, situato nella comunità autonoma dell’Andalusia, nel sud della Spagna. Capoluogo dell’omonima provincia, la città costituisce la capitale culturale ed economica della Costa del Sol. Nonostante nella regione siano state trovate tracce di presenza umana fin dalla preistoria (dolmen a Peña de los Enamorados nel comune di Antequera, pitture rupestri a Benaoján, ceramiche a Nerja), Malaga deve le sue origini al fatto di essere stata una delle colonie fondate dai fenici di Tiro intorno al VII secolo a.C. lungo il Mediterraneo occidentale.

The splendid Piazza San Matteo in Genoa.
In the centre of Genoa, a few dozen metres from Piazza De Ferrari, there is this beautiful square which, with its buildings and especially the abbey, is in my opinion one of the most beautiful in all of Genoa.
In fact, in addition to the Abbey of San Matteo, there are the Palazzo Lamba Doria, the Palazzo Gnecco Quartara (behind in the photo) and the Palazzo Domenicaccio Doria (on the left) and Branca Doria (in the centre between the church and the previous building).

There is also a nice official website: parrocchiasanmatteo.org.
Here's where the square is located:
Martino Doria, who entered the Benedictine friars of the Abbey of San Fruttuoso di Capodimonte after becoming a widower, obtained permission from Bishop Sigifredo to build a small church on land owned by the family near the Cathedral of San Lorenzo. The dedication of the new church to San Matteo was linked to his profession as a tax collector, just like the Dorias, who therefore made him their patron.

Delle ottime croquetas spagnole gustate a Tenerife.
Uno dei miei piatti preferiti in Spagna sono le crocchette con jamon.
In questo caso queste, che erano veramente ottime, le ho gustate in una tasca (una osteria) nel centro di Santa Cruz di Tenerife.

The apse ceiling of Santa Maria sopra Minerva in Rome.
Santa Maria sopra Minerva is one of the most important churches in Rome and is located near the Pantheon, in the Pigna district. Built in the 13th century by the Dominican Friars, it is one of the rare examples of Gothic architecture in Rome, famous for its history, art and architecture.
The basilica stands on a site that was previously occupied by a pagan temple, initially attributed to the goddess Minerva, but which was actually dedicated to Isis. The name "sopra Minerva" derives from this ancient belief. The construction of the Gothic church began in 1280 and was completed at the beginning of the 14th century. Over the centuries, the church has undergone numerous modifications and restorations, while maintaining its Gothic character.
The interior of Santa Maria sopra Minerva is richly decorated and maintains its original Gothic structure. It has a three-nave plan with pointed arches and vaulted ceilings. The side aisles house several richly decorated chapels with important works of art.
The apse ceiling is particularly impressive, with a ribbed vault richly decorated with bright colors and intricate patterns. In the center of the apse is a large painting depicting religious scenes, which helps create a solemn and evocative atmosphere.
Other Elements of Interest are: the Funeral Monument of Saint Catherine of Siena (Saint Catherine of Siena is buried in the basilica, and her tomb is a place of great devotion) and Bernini's Elephant (in the square in front of the church there is an Egyptian obelisk supported by a statue of an elephant, designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini; this monument is commonly known as the “Pulcino della Minerva”).
Santa Maria sopra Minerva is a place of great historical, artistic and religious importance, representing a unique example in the Roman architectural panorama for its Gothic style and the numerous works of art it houses.
