The remains of the Capitoline temple in Brescia

I resti del tempio Capitolino a Brescia

The remains of the Capitoline temple in Brescia.
A few months ago I was, for the second time in my life, in the beautiful city of Brescia and for the second time I went to visit the small park with the Roman remains right in the center.
Unlike last time, the park was open and so I was able to enter, for free, and walk among the remains.
Very fascinating!

Sestri Levante vista dalle alture delle Mimose.
Uno dei posti che preferisco per fotografare Sestri Levante è sicuramente andando sopra a via Lombardia (dalle Mimose).
Ovviamente sono andato con il cane e con l’obiettivo grande.
