The Cannara gate of the village of Bevagna in Umbria

La porta Cannara del borgo di Bevagna in Umbria

Cannara gate in the village of Bevagna in Umbria.
Cannara gate is one of the historical jewels of Bevagna, a charming town in Umbria. Dating back to the medieval period, this gate represents one of the best preserved testimonies of the city's past. The structure, with its imposing tower, loopholes and coats of arms, evokes images of a distant but timeless era.
An interesting detail is the central niche, once decorated with a fresco, which adds an artistic touch to the fortified architecture. Inside the gate, you can admire a sundial painted in the 18th century, testimony to the skill and attention to detail of the craftsmen of the time.
Visiting Cannara Gate means immersing yourself in the history of Bevagna and appreciating the timeless beauty of an urban work of art. A symbol of identity and tradition that continues to enchant visitors.
On the gate there is a sundial, which is however very faded, and a plaque in memory of Giuseppe Garibaldi.

The alley of Chiavari and the plaque for Garibaldi

Il caruggio di Chiavari e la targa per Garibaldi

The alley of Chiavari and the plaque for Garibaldi.
One of the many shots of the views that I like to take when I walk in the alley of Chiavari.
In this case, from the portico, you can see this plaque (perhaps a gravestone) in memory of Giuseppe Garibaldi.
Since it is not possible to read what is written in this photo, I will transcribe it below:

Qui il 5 e 6 settembre 1849
Giuseppe Garibaldi

eroe dei Due Mondi

La Società Economica

Il caruggio di Chiavari e la targa per Garibaldi

Photo taken with Honor 20.

Considered by historiography and in the mass culture of the 20th century as the main Italian national hero, he began his travels around the world as an officer of merchant ships, and then became a long-distance captain. His most famous enterprise was the victorious expedition of the Thousand that led to the annexation of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies to the nascent Kingdom of Italy, a central episode in the process of unification of the new nation.

The splendid Galleria Garibaldi in Genoa

La splendida galleria dedicata a Giuseppe Garibaldi a Genova

The splendid gallery dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi in Genoa.
Arriving in Piazza Portello you find this beautiful gallery of which I always appreciate the inscription at the entrance, the two marble statues that protect it and the Minaret tower just above.
Built in 1927 (MCMXXVII) and originally dedicated to Vittorio Emanuele III, the gallery was renamed after the Second World War in honor of Giuseppe Garibaldi, in line with the post-war feeling of renewal and national unity.
I really like photographing this point of Genoa.
